From FAQ on the Census website:

Do I have to answer the ACS questions?

Yes. Response to this survey is required by law (Section 221 of Title 13 ).

Will they actually prosecute you if you don't. I don't think so, but they could . . . .

Unless you have an outstanding warrant out for your arrest, I don't know why you wouldn't do it. If they have a warrant out for your arrest they know where you live unless you are hiding at someone else's place.
