The way it's written, it sounds like we could download it in the US, after the law was passed, for 180 days, and then do whatever we want with it. Unfortunately, after that point, the test of it being "developed" in China would probably be met for anything but a near-total rewrite.

That's why I consider that tagline, 'The Land of the Free,' the failed punchline of a bad joke now.

Criminalizing something broadly isn’t usually done with the intention of going after everyone who does it, it’s so when they do single out someone they can charge them even if they haven’t actually caught them doing anything wrong (besides the thing everybody does).
