I'm not even concerned about forum discussions or whatever, schematics, diagrams, and other such information are an essential part of a populace that can defend itself from state and non-state actors.

Paragraph (a)(1) of the revised definition
defines ‘‘technical data’’ as information
‘‘required’’ for the ‘‘development,’’
‘‘production,’’ operation, installation,
maintenance, repair, overhaul, or
refurbishing of a ‘‘defense article,’’
which harmonizes with the definition of
‘‘technology’’ in the EAR and the
Wassenaar Arrangement. This is not a
change in the scope of the definition,
and additional words describing
activities that were in the prior
definition are included in parentheticals
to assist exporters.
Paragraph (a)(1) also sets forth a
broader range of examples of formats
that ‘‘technical data’’ may take, such as
diagrams, models, formulae, tables,
engineering designs and specifications,
computer-aided design files, manuals or
documentation, or electronic media,
that may constitute ‘‘technical data.’’
