The Feds consider crypto as munitions so I guess you could ask that same
question as:
I sold a bunch of Stinger missiles to a man with an American sounding
name, "Smith." How was I to know he was __________[bad guys]?
I bet they would prosecute you for the missiles so I'd suspect they would
on the crypto too.
