Yes, I agree.  The question is, "What are you

Hold onto your seat.  This is just an example of how a run away
government is going to treat it's people. 
This is not freedom, this is bondage.
Th article says in part:
The worst-case scenario for an individual or civil offense could be as
much as a $2,500 fine. As for those planning to profit off of the act or
a criminal offense -- such as a cellphone reseller -- the fine could be
as high as $500,000 and include prison time.
