Links to the actual announcements of sanctions:

* https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0616/

* https://www.state.gov/releases/office-of-the-spokesperson/20...

And - the list of people that were originally put in this category when G.W. Bush issued this executive order has 29 people/organizations: Usama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri, Al Qaida, and various affiliated/related organizations.

So, yesterday it was Bin-Laden, today it is some Italian left-wing tech guys, and tomorrow it might well be you or me. Get ready to be branded a terrorist at some point.
