Interesting. It makes no sense at all in this case because the stated reason for the law (capturing troop movements) is impossible here. The resolution and focal length is way too low to see anything smaller than a few miles in diameter :)
But it is a law... It should be repealed or specified in more detail IMO (e.g. only applying to really high detail levels). But I can imagine the US Govt has bigger fish to fry right now with a raging pandemic.
