I mentioned the arrest of Dmitry Sklyarov yesterday, via /. here's an archive of Sklyarov related documents at Cryptome including an HTML version of the PDF of the criminal complaint which actually mentions rot-13. So according to the US DOJ

tr A-Za-z N-ZA-Mn-za-m

is a violation of Title 17, United States Code, Section 1201(b)(1)(A), the penalty for which is five years imprisonment and a fine of $500,000. Get out your checkbooks now and send the EFF money.
