I think your answer conflates two issues.

If Syria is on the export control list, there's really no further discussion
to be had.

But I wonder how many i.e. school nanny-filters ban URLs with the word
"proxy," and how that impacts the ability of users in any country to obtain
Fedora.

The idea of an alternate URL using package hashes seemed reasonable to me,
to route around that sort of internet damage.
