So much vagueness in misuse yet so much impact with consequences. This bill is being speedlined. And it seems to hurt everyone at the same time.

Better to bring a bill with specific limitations and prohibitions that is complete with treatment, consequences, prosecutions, and appeals.

Then that bill can be extended to other prohibited actions as they become apparent

Have you read the bill or is the quote the only thing you're going on?

Except this is not the text of the bill. You are quoting a comment from a news articles, and commenting upon it as if you were reading a bill.
