Re: [open-regulatory-compliance] Is there anything outside the scope of CRA's connection requirement?

Hi Florian,

I'm also interested in this question. A lot of software does not have a
network connection and if it has one, it could be removed.
The network connection is not mentioned in any way in the EC flowchart
from last FOSDEM. I'm almost convinced that it is a remnant from CRA
history.
How do we treat it legally? PLD, which does not have the network clause,
will indirectly enforce CRA for all software so I don't think it matters
much in practice but it's still weird.
If nobody has any insights we should put this question on the FOSDEM agenda.

Hey All,

One question I have asked myself but haven’t found a satisfactory answer to yet - are there any products that are exempt by not (directly or indirectly) being used with a network connection? Arguably, the product categories are quite broad, so it seems almost this requirement does not really matter. But then why not extend it to all products, independent if they have a network connection or not? Is this just a product of the CRAs legislative history?
