Asking someone questions about their compliance with a law is not the same as asking someone questions about an innocuous subject.

If I ask if your site complies with COPPA, that's not a threat that I'm going to sue you.

If I ask you a peculiar question you may wonder what my motivation was for asking it.

You might claim that it isn't, but if you are just asking me that question out of the blue I'm certainly going to wonder why you're asking and what you're up to. A random individual that goes around asking individuals who have websites if their websites comply with some law can't claim that they're just behaving in a normal everyday manner.

Maybe you know that, but I don't.
