No ban will stop that. Whatever is possible will also be done, that has always been the case. As usual, there will be an arms race and possibly, for example, meditation teachers will open up completely new fields of activity.

The document is 10 years old. Many things have changed. I'm not a US citizen (apparently the target group), but somehow I doubt that such an old text would adequately reflect this.
