Well, it would be illegal by any common sense interpretation of the laws. But, it would be done anyway, and then the courts would say no one has standing to challenge it, or come up with an incredibly non common sense way to suggest it could be legal, or, if unable to do that, at least stretch out calling it illegal for about three to five years. At which point they’d go “oops, our bad, I promise we won’t do it again…” and no one involved would face real consequences.
