You're either extremely ill informed about your state laws concerning your own profession, a liar or both.  My bet is it's both.

According to Illinois Public Law:
"PROFESSIONS AND OCCUPATIONS (225 ILCS 447/) Private Detective, Private Alarm, Private Security, and Locksmith Act of 2004.
(225 ILCS 447/Art. 5 heading)  ARTICLE 5. GENERAL PROVISIONS."

"Private alarm contractor" does not include a person, firm, or corporation that manufactures or sells alarm systems only from its
place of business and does not sell, install, monitor, maintain, alter, repair, replace, service, or respond to alarm systems at
protected premises or premises to be protected."

This clearly exempts retailers, online or otherwise, from license requirements.  The Illinoin legislature obviously has the same
attitude about this as does virtually every other state legislature -- contractor licenses are for those who go out and install
stuff.

BTW, since I never lived in Illinois, you saying I "ran away" from there is... a lie.  Then again, no one expected any better from
you.
