That's even worse, because then it's not really a law, it's a license for political persecution of anyone disfavored by whoever happens to be in power.

Never mind the damage that was willfully allowed to happen that the bill was supposed to protect from happening.
Every law is like this. Only fools and schoolchildren believe that the rule of law means anything other than selective punishment of those who displease the ruling class.
I agree that is how it currently is in the US, but I don't believe it is universally true or that nothing can be done to change it if enough people resisted.
My statement has nothing to do with contemporary politics and is not unique in the slightest to the US. For an example you are likely sympathetic to, consider the experience of Pavel Durov since late 2024.
