Thats like saying you can’t sell drugs inside the police commissioners office. Yeah, everyone understands that, doofus. Nobody that wants to release information that a nation state level actor wants suppressed is going to do it within their borders.

This is intentionally obtuse, how is something going to gain traction without being hosted on services that are answerable to the US before someone else were to patent it and start the process.

Tell people down the pub and upload it to what? Pirate bay? Tiktok?

It would be incredibly difficult, the law is ripe for abuse.
