Practically all public visible encryption had to come from overseas during the crypto wars, because US crypto was not allowed to be exported. So everybody used european or australian crypto, and we still do. gpg, openssl, gnutls, truecrypt, ssleay, ...

"Crypto Wars" is a historical term, not slang or embellishment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypto_Wars

Yes, I know, and it is an embellishment if you believe crypto was/is the solution.

Calling it a crypto war is missing the point and the solution; in fact, the link you provide shows that the focus on crypto was a mistake.

SSH is originally from Finland. Unlike GPG, it's not an implementation of a pre-existing spec, so it might make a somewhat better example.

And AES was developed in Belgium...

GPG is an implementation of PGP (via the OpenPGP specification). PGP was developed in the US, and was, in many ways, the opening salvo of the "first crypto war".

PGP was also printed in book form and exported (to get around the fact that "software" was considered arms, but books not).

I remember wanting an RSA t-shirt at the time (A t-shirt with the RSA algorithm on it, which is/was considered "munitions" - and not for export).
