The problem is that you're looking for a needle in the portion of a
haystack that happens to have been recorded; finding none, you declare
the haystack needle free.
In my recollection, there is a semi-regular IETF participant who travels
with a MacBook that has a Tibetan flag sticker prominently visible on
the lid. Hopefully, someone with the political awareness to make that
kind of statement also has the political awareness to recognize that
bringing a laptop so decorated into the PRC is likely to cause an incident.
On the other hand, someone with the value system to make that kind of
statement may welcome such an incident. The clause under discussion runs
headlong into this kind of problem and amplifies it by potentially
shutting down the entire event.
And that's just the needle in this haystack that I can remember,
unaided, without the assistance of transcripts or surveillance of any
kind. You're comfortable that it's the only needle?
You have lot of faith.
