Would they cover it on TV news?
There's little-to-no discussion about the implications on tech, based on my reading of the comments.
Just general politics and nationalism.

There is a lot of discussion in this thread on the implications to tech - you see people actively changing their travel plans as a result. We are going to lose tech workers because of how dangerous it is becoming to make the slightest misstep while traveling in the US.

Okay, so what's your answer? Why's it getting flagged? I just tried to answer guy's question.

You commented 3 hours in on a topic that was flagged for hours. How much discussion did you expect period?
The implications are obvious: other countries's businesses will be terrified reading this and refuse to enter the country. No one wants their liasons arrested by a foreign country. I can imagine many businesses in he EU marking the US as a no-fly zone over this story
