There was a court hearing in the 90's when a programmer released his version of a program to encrypt files and the government was worried about their military files being unencrypted. They wanted to ban his program. He took them to court arguing that software is language protected by free speech. The courts agreed.

Yup, and then he got a tax audit.
The next time he wrote a program, he didn’t put his name on it.
Today he is richer than Bill Gates, and he’s known to you and I as Satoshi Nakamoto.

You don't know the name of that case by chance do you? If not, no worries. I'll try Google.
