Yes this is never the fault of an individual.

(Unless there’s a lawyer behind it all!)

Daniel is very helpful and supports people where he can.
I am well aware that Keysight may have muzzled him,
which is why I blame Keysight for the poor PR and not Daniel.

No, no, it WASN't a critique to you. I apologize if it came that way.
Your post merely reminded me that I wanted to say that. Before there is flurry of "Daniel this, Daniel that..."

Best,

Cerebus:
My suspicion is that Daniel is quietly fuming because some little jobsworth* in Keysight Germany is undoing all the good work he's been doing over the years.

Nobody ought to read anything here as criticism of Daniel - in a public forum he can't very well say that he thinks his own company is making a pig's ear of this. At least he has the consolation that he doesn't work for Apple - I wouldn't want to be one of their corporate apologists at the moment!

* An English expression for the kind of inflexible individual who when asked to do something reasonable uses company policy as the excuse not to, with the phase "It's more than my job's worth". Closely allied to, and frequently used with, the English idiom for someone who has been given a little authority and has allowed it to go to their head and become dictatorial - a "little Hitler". Normally I'd regard that a tad insensitive to use about or in the presence of Germans but in this case ...

I don't think there is anything anyone can do here, the lawyers have deemed it so for whatever reason and that's that, and Keysight management aren't going to go against the lawyers.

I reckon that if someone were to set up an Incorporated Business or suitably VAT Registered company, then well, there is no limit to how many "contractors" that said company can have that can use that VAT/business number or whatever to get products and services  ;)

Well, yes, but...

Who in "KeysightSuxCo" would be willing to take responsibility (whatever that means) for the actions of unknown third parties, and "police" the business they are doing through KeysightSuxCo?

Being able to disprove accusations of ITAR violations and money laundering spring to mind.
