Is any law or regulation air tight? There are laws against child pornography being on the internet, yet people still find ways to do it. Nobody is suggesting child pornography laws are pointless, yet that's the logic in that article.

Exactly. Not legislating because you cannot be sure that the problem will be completely eradicated is patent nonsense.
I cannot think of many laws that are 100% successful in removing a problem completely. That is not the point.
The point is that offenders are punished and stopped from gaining from the crime wherever possible.
Or shall we all just carry on trying to adapt to a lawless situation where adapting actually means joining in the free for all.
