I think that's a great point, and I think what's happening in Australia is a good step.
We can talk about how people might get around these regulations, but that's a deliberate act. You have to want to get around them. You have to be willing to falsify. You have to be willing to obfuscate. You have to be willing to take a proactive act to break the rules here.
I'd rather there be rules in place that are imperfect than to have nothing in place. I think you could go straight to bans, or you could have usurious fines, or you could.... There are lots of ways to go about this that I think would, at the very least, reduce the harm.
While I think eliminating the harm is impossible—and I think your point there is very well taken, and the same thing with Mr. Al Soud—I'm happy to live in a world of harm reduction right now, because there's none right now.
