Where is each of those subcomponents coming from?

And modern supply chains are incredibly interlinked, complex, global structures.

So, like, keeping up with all of that for a company is really hard because you buy something –

You buy an object and you put it in a component, you put it in your product, but that component has subcomponents that come from different countries.

You don't know.

And now, you know, tracing this back to tier one, tier two, tier three suppliers.

And I mentioned, it's not just the United States.

I mean, these regulations are increasing.

Europe now requires when you import wood, you have to be able to show the GPS coordinates of where the tree was grown.

for anti-deforestation.

I mean, I think that's a noble cause, but you now need to be able to show where was the tree grown, and then you need a receipt from the trucker to show that this truck did in fact pick the goods up

at that forest and bring it to this sawmill.

And they want to see that leg monitored.

And so that's the trend of where things are going.

And importers and exporters need to get ahead of this with good database technology to track it all.

And you want that database to be networked so that other people can contribute and add to it, et cetera.

So I think from a Flexport standpoint, it's like positioning ourselves.

We feel like we've made the right bets technology-wise to help people manage this.

It is, as a kind of a free market guy, I can see the burden that this puts on companies.

And there comes a point when you're like, government, like, maybe you should just charge me a couple percent more tariff and not make me do all that stuff.
