The law is already written for the cases of "indistinguishable from the real thing." The entire Ashcroft vs Freespeech Coalition case was built on that, and the SCOTUS said it was protected speech because there was no actual victim being harmed. (paraphrasing based on my understanding)
The overcorrection already happened. It was the Amber Alert Law in 2003, which allowed them to go back and say "if we deem it obscene, it loses all protection and is now illegal. Obscene being of course a 'i know it when i see it' category."
None of this is new, and the people who are upset about it are playing right into the hands of the Feds.
Every. Single. Time.
They always think the Feds are so braindead retarded they can't possibly guess their reaction and not just plan for but work it into their plans.
