> I complain to the SEC that I thought Jose's tacos would be worth more if I resold them tomorrow

They would dismiss your complaint as silly, trivial, and obviously frivolous. That is, your complaint would fail the test of common sense.

That doesn't exclude the possibility of him being prosecuted tho and the regulation being abused.

If Jose was communicating with an ISIS recruiter but they couldn't pin him on that - could they pin him on the Taco racket?
