One thing to keep in mind: laws are not always just.
I believe it's okay to sometimes not follow the law, if the law is unjust. One example: in WW2 Germany there were many laws against minorities that were unjust [0]. Most law obedient people would follow these laws regardless.
Perhaps a person want to support his family in Iran or Russia that's going through difficult times. And perhaps crypto is the only way to help. In such cases I think it's okay to oppose the law.
