Ok... I'm presuming you're merely be facetious but someone might actually take that seriously. 1) The warning says nothing about it being illegal. It merely says to check the laws where you live. 2) The download site is in the US. 3) Possession of cryptography in the US has never been illegal. 4) The import of cryptography to the US have never been illegal. 5) The export of cryptography use to be illegal (under ITAR and earlier EAR regulations) but, for open source software at least, restrictions were abolished YEARS ago except for a requirement to register the sites hosting the software. No download restrictions on the clients. Not even the "know your customer" requirements or T7 restrictions for OSS binaries and/or sources. For reference: I'm the author of the original SSL code for fetchmail. Yes, I really did talk to our lawyers about that before releasing the code as OpenSource and posting it with Eric Raymond on his site. That was in the days BEFORE they made that legal.
