It would be harder for a short period of time. Then it will be made easy again. As a baseline, it's not going to get harder than pirating a movie unless it's made criminal.

what sense does that make? Why would it suddenly get easier?

I didn't say suddenly. Do you think no one would try to develop a replacement?

		Please don’t get hung up on my word choice. The point is this: I don’t understand why you think that it’s a given that adoption would occur at a meaningful level. We have it right now. Why would we give that up for the promise that we’ll get to again? It makes no sense. We should not want access to be eroded over time and then cope with “well we’ll get an alternative.” That’s not a given! It’s not going to stop with hugging face just like ID requirements aren’t stopping at pornography. It is much harder to regain these things once they are lost.
