Don't do illegal things on your phone :)

Good luck with that. The CFAA was written when Reagan was spooked by Wargames in 1982. If you violate any TOS of websites you use (very easy to do) it can be prosecuted as a federal felony with a maximum sentence of 25 years imprisonment.

If the police really want you to disappear into the penal system, they'll make it happen. And they do, routinely.
