The reason it’s not that easy is that platform holders have contractual obligations with content providers about their content being secure. These obligations are an incentive to content production.
Actually its exactly that easy. The platform holders cannot offer something to content providers that is outside the boundaries of the law nor use a court to compel them to break the law.
Making it the law is about the only thing that would work because incentives are otherwise inherently misaligned.

To which you said

I pointed ought that if the law were modified as requested that such contractual obligations would be mooted because they cannot be obligated to implement restrictions that would fall afoul of the prospective law that commenter proposed and I agree ought to be implemented.
