The objective, I thought, and most of my constituents think, is to keep the rest of the world, but China in particular, from ripping us off. So where do we end up?

I do wonder, you say like, you know, images you're sending to your significant other in a different state, but is it even clear just from your description of that, maybe you'd even run into trouble in the same state, you know, if the data itself is somehow bouncing to a data center out of state or something like that.
