An "illegal" operating system could be coded to be nearly undetectable.
But if the OS was illegal than people would have to develop it in secret instead of doing it out in the open. This might not be such a problem for individual programmers writing away lines code in their basements. But, much of modern Linux is developed by companies who wouldn't be able to skirt around the law as easily as individual people and would probably have to close up shop.
