That assumes it is constantly advertising itself. If it say reconfigured itself every hour for a couple seconds the odds of seeing in on any given lsusb are quite low.
Anecdotally my teenage cousin asked for a vinyl album of her favorite artist last Christmas. She doesn't even own a record player and doesn't own a single CD. She said it was about supporting the artist and that she appreciated the art. It also came with a poster.
No apparently there are still other rules that keep things in check we just got rid of that one. My understanding is that it did crank up the speed money printing quite significantly though.
It really came in handy though when I needed an extension on my homework. I would just intentionally corrupt the file, blame it on the floppy, and the teacher would give me an extra day to turn it in.
