There are a few ways to get around most of those kinds of issues, though, "we" don't need "permission" to do this. IDGAF about legality anymore. Any thinking person won't, either, at least if one has a strong enough moral compass and doesn't have too much to loose. But even that is a weak minded way to think about things and while I don't want to end up in loosing battle with the state in general, it's still worth fighting.
