I agree, and it's also worth remembering that those factors can change. Perhaps the current administration will selectively enforce in one way, but the law may be on the books for a long time, and those in power in the future may use that tool in quite a different way. P.S. I edited the post since yours - "that’s the most dangerous thing about it" is now "that’s what makes it so dangerous", because I think it's less ambiguous. I don't think it affects your post, I just wanted people to know that you didn't misquote.
