You know, it's the Kafkaesque thing.
Did intelligence agencies try to, like, say, can you put a backdoor on VLC?
Yes, two of them.
What do you say?
No.
I was a lot less polite.
Allowing a government to do a backdoor?
Does VLC ever like censor the kind of videos it can play and not based on the content of the video?
No, never.
We never do that.
So again, there's no government that can say, you know, like the French government come in and say, we don't want, I think anime is destructive to society.
We don't want any anime, not allowed to be.
That's amazing.
That's really, that's an amazing story, yeah.
Do you feel the stress of this?
So first of all, millions of people using it.
Second of all, the military using it.
Maybe sometimes pressure from governments.
Does that... That's a small team, right?
Yeah.
