We have our own share of absurd laws in Australia. Until I pointed it 
out to a newspaper, and they published an article about it, it was the 
law that if you boarded an aircraft and noticed a bomb under the seat, 
you were not permitted to say anything about it to the crew.

The law was subsequently changed.

However, a theoretical possibility of a prosecution is one thing. Actual 
prosecutions are another. Any evidence that the Feds are actually doing 
what the book's description suggests they could?
