Say your country makes baby formula illegal to push some breastfed is the only way agenda, would you consider a mother buying formula online with crypto a criminal?

Yes, because criminality has nothing to do with morals. If the state views you as a criminal, you are a criminal. That's why some criminals are still good people and cool.

I wouldn't say it has nothing to do with morals, since (at least hopefully) it's our morals that help guide us when making laws.

But yes, illegal does not necessarily mean immoral, and vice versa.
