They would be if they read it. Every complaint I've seen about how the law is obviously going to be misapplied is called out specifically in the text in a way that makes it a non-issue.

I've read it. It's a wonderfully written document on basic human rights and inter-government interaction. As regulation I can code to, it's a goddamn clusterfuck. It's like someone tried to invent TCP/IP but in the middle there's a paragraph that says something like "appropriate networking stuff happens here and data is reliably moved around!".
laws often describes the effect it ought to have, but don't mention how!
