That reasoning is exactly how we get all these government measures.
It's that simple. Letting the government do something just because something needs to be done makes things worse, not better. This isn't a solution, so it's a moot point.
I'm not married to the bill. I'm wondering how you think the problem should be solved through extrajudicial or cultural means and I guess your answer is, the problem isn't big enough to prompt a solution.
You say cultural means after your first post soundly rejected the notion of using cultural means. The fact is that government intervention to erode parental rights is a primary reason that shit has gotten as bad as it is. The education system needs to be reformed and government needs to stop fucking with homeschoolers and threatening to steal your children and jail you if you punish them or stop them from doing harmful things.
Cultural means such as educating people about the negatives of this technology and restoring religion to society are the same means the government has fought against for decades.
I'm just going to quote myself here:

Where did I say the word "government"? We need a solution.
You're saying this government bill is a solution.
You're not getting it, and you're not addressing any of my points.
"We need a solution," leads to terrible solutions. Even if there's a problem, sometimes the least bad thing is still leaving things how they were.

The problem isn't big enough to prompt a bad "solution."
