That sounds like a great state of affairs, if people actually raise challenges to such laws, and win. I would love to see such overreaching attempts tied up endlessly in litigation, ideally with associated PR to make sure that the visible actions are all portrayed as a mess associated with the officials supporting such overreach in the first place.
I'd rather see overreach stopped before it starts, but in the absence of that, I'd like to see it stopped by any means we have, including civil disobedience and litigation.
In this context: remove CAs that issue MITM certificates, and loudly and repeatedly say "So you're prosecuting us and demanding that we include a known-insecure CA that's used to make the Internet less secure? Is that what you'd like to say to these cameras, the entire Internet, and people who will see this played repeatedly while they decide whether to vote for you in the next election? Or would you like to drop this?"
