What he is saying in the REAL world is there REALLY a difference in between those business and us running websites? And the answer is NO. What because I have the abilty to change the background and font on my page I'm PUBLISHER? Well can't a movie theater change the color of the walls and the carpeting? The internet is the way I choose to DISTRIBUTE my content. Should the way I DISTRIBUTE my content punish me?
Look at this way. What is the "supposed" reasoning for this new rule? To prevent content that may have minors in it from being seen by people. Now if that is the case then why WOULDN'T cable TV or movie theaters also be required to follow these rules?
So the govrnment cares if some 16 year olds are on content that is on the internet but if some porno shops has the SAME content they don't give a fuck? Going by who they have exempt it seems that way. So basically the rule is saying to CPers. "Here, peddle your stuff at bookstores and movie theaters because we won't be looking for you there."
