That's a good idea. But seriously, you can't even tell your lawyer to defend yourself against something like that? How is that even remotely constitutional? Does the US Congress pass laws that violate the Constitution on purpose these days?
ACLU challenged it in two cases and that aspect was ruled unconstitutional in both. The law was changed in 2005 to explicitly state that the gag order does not stop you from talking to lawyers about the NSL.
