There are devices whose resistance changes over time, depending on what 
the current is doing.

Inca descent light bulbs.  Florescent light bulbs, for a different 
reason. Capacitors. Inductors. Basically pretty much everything except a 
plain old resistor.

They're not violating Ohm's law. They're just changing resistance.
