I'm reminded of Matrix-Churchill: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arms-to-Iraq

Although that nearly went in the other direction. The people involved were nearly sent to jail for shipping arms to Iraq which they had been doing at the behest and with the complicity of the UK security services.

The power of government agencies to turn up to people's offices and tell them "you need to stop doing what you're doing, and it's illegal to mention this meeting" should not be underestimated.
