Doesn't matter. That is still inside information and you can't trade it. Otherwise you'll end up just like this guy [0] and all the others who thought they could get away with it. Doesn't matter who. The amount of HNers attempting to defend illegal trades like this is mind-boggling. Those in Congress should also be investigated over their suspiciously timed trades and as long as they are working in Congress, they should not be doing such trading at all. There are no excuses for it.
