Thank you, random stranger on the Internet! However, that is not the law. And even if you are right? As I posted yesterday, half of the employers in the USA has 1-4 employees and make $387,200 on average yearly. Even if they get fined to 1% of the maximum, they are completely wiped out. So no, it's not hysteria, it's plain business sense for them to slap an IP ban on it and move on.
