There's a difference between Libra (the Swiss-based association) and Calibra (the US-based FB subsidiary making the first wallet).

> "Calibra will do its part to facilitate the efficacy of international sanctions regimes. We will administer and enforce applicable sanctions programs including, for example, U.S., EU, and U.N. sanctions programs."

So the wallet software will enforce the sanctions?

If somebody writes an open-source wallet they can circumvent the rules?

I don't get it.
