And like, I remember in the middle of the Afghan war, right?
I received an email from someone in the army, right?
I don't remember the grades, right?
It was just like, we have a big issue with the latest version of VLC because it doesn't play correctly the file on an RTSP server that we have where there is all the movies.
And he says, VLC is very important for the moral on the troop on the ground, right?
Because at night, I think it might be boring, right?
So they have a collection of videos to watch, right?
or movies over there, right?
And of course, I did an update and I broke some support of RTSP, right?
So I gave them another version just for them, right?
Because it was important.
And because VLC is completely open source, I think it is allowed on the US Army laptops, right?
Because I guess someone in the...
in the U.S.
military actually looked at it and said, well, okay, this is okay, right?
And the way we document how we process, that was okay, right?
So the only way we work with authorities is to help them doing support.
We don't see anything happening on how people use VLC, and this is strong.
And everything legally is on me.
Everything that is legal is on me.
