Aruba gives the following warning when doing containment / deauth

The Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") and some third parties have 
alleged that, under certain circumstances, use of containment functionality 
violates 47 U.S.C. Section 333 and/or other FCC rules, regulations or policies. 
Before using any containment functionality, you should determine whether your 
intended use is allowed under the applicable rules, regulations and policies. 
Aruba shall not be liable for any claims, sanctions, or other direct, indirect, 
special, consequential or incidental damages related to your use of containment 
functionality.

I don't know about that. The enforcement example that stands out to me is 
Marriott was not allowed to use the fine print when you get a room to prohibit 
hot spots, interfering or not, and they paid a hefty fine because of it.

The details are a little hazy with the passage of time, but IIRC the Marriott 
case was special because they were using the active rogue disassociation 
features of their wireless network to intentionally knock people off of any 
SSIDs other than the ones that they were operating.  So that goes beyond simply 
radiating on a channel.

Corrections/clarifications welcome as always! :)
