Hm, that’s not what it implies to me. My impression of it is “denial of human interface” which is most saliently mediated by faces (incl. eye-contact and speech). Things are still going on behind the face, but you are denied the human interface with that. Nothing about following rules blindly, if anything it’s more about using the rules as a shield to prevent such access. So it feels like a good term to me.
