That doesn't stop them from shutting things down. The result is the same: You no longer have it. An offline wallet would help, if you can avoid jail.

So you're basically saying that it works with an offline wallet? Wasn't that the original point?

Offline wallets have limited utility. Once you want to do anything at all with the money it becomes vulnerable.
