Children are always used to justify legislation that violates freedoms:
> The “Keep Our Children Safe Act,” would require adult sites to verify the ages of users located in the state. It is generally similar to numerous AV laws already in effect in U.S. states or pending in state legislatures.
But this part goes further than other states:
> HB 2112 additionally mandates that sites subject to its AV rules must display “information pertaining to the youth health risks associated with adult content” on their landing pages and in advertisements for the site, as well as contact information for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration helpline.
Surprising since Washington state is supposedly progressive culturally unlike some other states that are more Christian conservative.
