Actually - that answer may oversimplify things / be rather incorrect depending on the exact question of the entity that asks and the exact situation (who ships what code from where).
For this reason it is properly best to refer this original poster to: https://www.apache.org/licenses/exports/ Which explains that Spark is classified as ECCN 5d002, and is subject to EAR. And to refer developers or those that need to bundle Spark, or otherwise place it on the market to: https://infra.apache.org/crypto.html And when in doubt - contact the Spark PMC or the ASF security team.
