      Still no. Do they do it anyway? Probably, but that doesn’t make it legal.

        If I do something, people find out about it, and I don’t get arrested, it’s defacto legal

        are they gonna get in trouble for doing it, even if the government finds out?

        probably not, so it’s practically legal; and that’s kind of the only kind of legality that matters in this case
