I agree, we should just ignore it.  Even the NYTimes article says "in 
theory---and almost certainly only in theory", so this is unlikely to be 
prosecuted.  So while I admire people's willingness to offer themselves 
as test cases, I don't see it as very likely that you're going to 
convince the US government to sue you, so we might as well just ignore it.
