@ariadne @RunxiYu my vague recollection of statutory interpretation is that intent is not law. Legislative intent only comes into interpretation if there are two equally plausible readings of an act that can only be chosen between by divining the legislature’s intent.

That this law might be developed with good intent, just ignorantly, does not make it any less dangerous.

(I’m not a lawyer, this isn’t legal advice.)
