This is yet another non-issue that represents a misunderstanding or deliberate obfuscation of the relevant law to rile the rubes (it seems to again have worked on you).
Yep. If you go out and buy lunch for the gang planning the bank robbery, that can be the overt act that gets you in the conspiracy.

On edit: now see you whellsplained it after he 'didn't get it' the first time. He probably still won't get it, of course. He's not here to get things.
