So, there is an European regulation that prohibits for all European citizens to distribute (among a bunch of other things) software to North Korean citizens.
But.
If I share via torrent a piece of software like a bitcoin wallet and a dude in North Korea downloads it, am I distributing software? Or is he taking it?
But more importantly, why the EU should care about what I choose to freely distribute?
