Good grief!!
We've moved into a definite era of attempting control through technology, and what defines the "era" is the level of aggression and overt strong arming of responsibility onto companies.
The very highly undesirable part is this will all likely end up working a lot like banking rules do. The companies set policy and enforce it technically, nicely circumventing many limits associated with government and law.

Here it comes! CODE and tech as law.
I do not see this ending well at all, and it's not going to be pleasant.
Edit: Also, "drunk driving" is the "save the children" type blanket cover argument for many other reasons behind this initiative.
