I understand the need for restrictions in industries like defense, space, or healthcare, where compliance is crucial. However, I’m curious because this requirement seems to appear even for more general roles, like front-end positions at SaaS startups. What’s the logic behind applying such a restriction in those cases?

Regulations follow the money and it's infective. So even in what could seem to be unrelated things depending on the funding or the partnerships or the relationships of those companies they may be under the same compliance burdens. The embargo lists are insanely bizarre.
