The FCC has repeated its notice from January 2021, reminding amateur radio operators that they may not use the Amateur Radio Service to commit or facilitate crimes. (https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DA-21-453A1.pdf)
If we as amateur radio operators fail to be a 'self-policing' community we will become a community policed by the government.
