According to Fred Riedenschneider, the HUP applies to most things, regardless of size or origin. Riedenschneider made a pretty good case for that point of view in a speech I saw him make, although, to be fair, the speach was filmed and I only saw the filmed version. I say that only because a film could be edited.
