I can't post a link Bruce, you've blocked me on twitter. Just like Michelle blocked me last year and swears she didn't, or it must have been a twitter bug or something. Now I'm being accused of faking screenshots. When it comes to you and your party up is down, left is right, and Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia. Keep repeating your lies enough, and the plebes will fall in line. Orwell would be so proud.

I haven't been deleting tweets, so send the URLs. Screenshots are easy to fake.

Man I was hoping you'd deny this one.

I can post screenshots if you'd like, but the thread doesn't get much better from there.

I made "numerous legal threats"? I don't think so.
Given what a tremendous whopper that one is, I can't attach any credibility to the rest of your statement, except for one thing:
It is true that Michelle and Patrick, and for that matter I, feel that AMSAT's NDAs prevent it from being able to achieve a workable ITAR
strategy.
You simply can't use the ITAR 120.11 and EAR 734.7 carve-outs AND have secret or proprietary portions of any technology listed under the United States Munitions List. Once there is secret or proprietary technology,
all
of the nasty restrictions of ITAR are unavoidable.
It is possible to deal with secrets outside of the technology, such as launch schedules, and it is possible to compartmentalize some ITAR-protected information, for example technology specific to the
launch
which is not necessary for broader cooperations such as designing and constructing a satellite.
Thus it is necessary for AMSAT to examine all existing NDAs, separate itself from ones that are no longer necessary, and carefully compartmentalize any which need to stand for the moment. Michelle and Patrick attempted to initiate this process, but have been blocked.
Thanks
Bruce
