Yeah, but who defines "vice"?
This is a wedge that allows government to later justify requiring ID for even more things. Youtube is already divided into "adult" and "kid" sections; will that require ID? What about Reddit and Communities? What about non-filtered search results? AI services?
It also puts a real logistical burden on websites which big corpos can absorb but which can prevent small sites from even getting started. Imagine if you want to make an un-Jewed search engine in your garage. Well, now you need to implement a government digital ID scheme which is more expensive and time consuming that the entire rest of the site.
Governments do not do things because it's morally right, ever.

The brains of addicts light up differently than those of non-addicts. It can be quantified and independently verified scientifically.
