Maybe you're more guided by Thoreau in terms of your moral obligation to resist laws you think are unjust, but this position seems hypocritical: choose to break the law but just make it impossible to be caught.
I agree that if you never even discuss why someone was disqualified for something, no one will be able to prove that you discriminated, but in this example, it would be clear that you did. And unless you are someone who generally believes that we have no obligation to follow laws we don't agree with, it's odd that you, Mr. Law Guy, would float this idea out there.
