IANAL, but AFAIK no machine living in or interacting with someone in California can complete the Turing Test without breaking the law.

A simple question like 'Who should I vote for?' would cause the machine to either answer with the compliant 'Please note, I am not a human being...' or with some illegal comment about the democratic process.

Maybe that law requires an additional paragraph, stating that humans participating in a Turing Test should also identify themselves as bots ;-)
