The danger with these kinds of laws is that it is very easy to make them sound reasonable.

To fix that, please imagine these restrictions and requirements applied to book publishers and authors and libraries.

It would be absurd to require age verification/checking before being able to read something. We allow parents to decide what is suitable for their own children, but we do not require librarians or bookstores to do age checks, nor hold authors liable for precocious reading.
