I was invited to write an article for IEEE Spectrum on the export bill. I did so, but they insisted on editorial changes that I found unacceptable. For example, they wanted to insert a sentence crediting IBM with opposition to export controls, when as we all know IBM was thoroughly in the NSA corner.

IEEE first delayed the article to May, and then pulled it. I have put it up on my web site instead:
