You missed the OP's point. Most of us unknowingly commit major crimes in the course of our day, just given the sheer volume of statutes arrayed against us.
OP is referring to when prosecutorial discretion permits "the powers that be" to use this fact against people who fall into disfavor.
I did read the article and my comment doesn't state that his arrest was for raising drug prices. My comment said that vague financial laws, for which he was arrested (fraud), is often used against those that have stoked the anger of those in power.
