For the US, at least, I am forced to confirm that those 5000 raspberry pis aren’t going to a terrorist organization. Isn’t the EU the same way? So it’s not that it’s a military export, but that it’s a sanctioned organization (Iran and Hezbollah).


How are you realistically able to do this though? It's not like they can't order batches to some neutral-country intermediary and then ship them from there.


It's about assigning liability and making it more difficult, not a definitive solution.
