&gt; As EU citizen I have zero influence on US politics. Complaining on HN to US citizens is literally all I can do.<p>What about making nice things that US citizens can&#x27;t legally have? If you&#x27;re legally in the clear in your own jurisdiction, you don&#x27;t even need to take a risk yourself.<p>I&#x27;m not a lawyer and I don&#x27;t know exactly what our situation is in the EU, so don&#x27;t take my word that that&#x27;s safe. Software patents may be technically banned, but I think people disguise them as &#x27;business method&#x27; patents. And if you use US project hosting like Github, maybe someone can sue you there. I&#x27;m suggesting that, at the margins, we should take some risks.
