If that is the only thing this prevents, I am happy.

You know, as soon as I read this article, that was the first thing I thought of as a counter-argument. I have to say, though, that the alternative is to never have legislation on anything in this new global marketplace. Maybe it's appropriate to have legislation such as this just to have a standard for our own culture to conduct itself under, or to take a stand internationally. And even if it brings only one violator to justice, wouldn't that be worth it?

I think there are times when doing nothing really is better than doing something in a poorly executed manner, but I don't think this is that instance.
