What about that bill bothers you? The only thing there that is about the industry is the deceptive sites part. As long as the bill is used only to mail people who are using tags they know will brings minors where is the problem? The wording still leaves the burden of proof on the government to prove you intentionally were trying to lure minors to your site.

From the article:

Whoever knowingly embeds words or digital images into the source code of a Web site with the intent to deceive a minor into viewing material harmful to minors on the Internet shall be fined under this title and imprisoned for not more than 20 years...

A word or digital image that clearly indicates the sexual content of the site, such as 'sex' or 'porn,' is not misleading...

The term 'source code' means the combination of text and other characters comprising the content, both viewable and nonviewable, of a Web page, including any Web site publishing language, programming language, protocol or functional content, as well as any successor languages or protocols.
