Abstract
More broadly, the tools at the US government’s disposal— IEEPA, Congressional lawmaking authority, and CFIUS review—encourage the use of such flimsy rationale and a lack of transparency, which ultimately promotes such broad bans; and the costs of these bans are dear. There may be First Amendment implications, and at the very least, a chilling of speech. There are also significant impacts on American foreign policy, from legitimizing the Chinese strategy of cybersovereignty and government regulation, to the creation of incentives to localize data in a manner that might undermine American law enforcement efforts.
