No, I can't, and I don't think it is illegal. But the legality is not the true test of whether you should do it. The real test is: If I do it, will I be sued for damages by the customer's legal team, and for how much?3. Can someone give me one real law based reason why this is illegal?
Here in the U.S., just because something is legal doesn't mean you will not be sued successfully and have to pay out large amounts of money for shutting down a process or plant. You have the choice to pay up or fight in court--that is if you can afford the legal fees and are willing to spend the next 4 or 5 years in court.
Cigarette smoking was legal, but look how many billions have been paid out by the tobacco companies for damages to various people and governments--damages for an activity that was willingly and eagerly sought by the smokers (when any fool can see that smoking is not a healthful activity), yet the companies were still held to be responsible.
It is not whether you are justified and morally right in your actions, it is whether your actions can be presented to a jury as legally malicious, damaging, or irresponsible. All it takes is a vote by 12 people to put you in debt for several million bucks.
