Clif Burns, a Washington attorney and expert on export control laws, has been following the case and discussing it on his blog. "I don't think the government fully knows what it's doing, other than trying to put this guy in jail," Burns said. "They're saying public-domain information can't be shipped to countries subject to arms embargo. That's outlandish."
