I guess from the perspective of lawmakers, it's no different requiring browsers to not display certain sites than requiring book stores to not sell certain books.
I can even see the "logic" in that to a degree, especially if the people talking about it are rather tech averse.

This seems like a relevant read (I'm a big fan of this speech/essay ;p). It makes this point more generally about how General Computation is fundamentally different from a lot of other aspects of regulation but politicians do not understand this so well >.<
As usual, Stallman was right. A fucking modern Cassandra, that guy is.
So educate them?
Why should a book store not be allowed to sell certain books? Tf? There's nothing we can't find online if we wanted to. Why would anyone want allow some self righteous asshat to determine which books you can and can't read. Dangerous shit.
Because knowledge is bad for you! Books are the gateway to Satan, and the internet is the devils web!
You should burn your books and smash your computer!
You can trust me, I have a rectangular mustache and paint pictures of doggies!
