Seems that the best thing any country can do, is invest in energy that would last the people for the rest of their lives. Isn't this their main business now? $1 billion USD, seems cheap if that gets them 200GW of energy piped to the people.

If the Netherlands is anything like the rest of the countries on the planet I've seent, the problem isn't the lack of telling people to stay off their phone. The problem is that people tend to not pay any attention to the law, and common sense seems to be subjective.
Its very hard to police this on a mass scale as it just appears half of the people are talking to themselves. The pretense to pulling people over so far, isn't "They looked crazy to me judge, it looked like they were talking to themselves."

Now that the hardware is in, you define "points of failure." The industry isn't 100% behind you. The people don't want to have their pictures taken. Change the conversation from "do you want this hardware," to "do you want it to work correctly or just sit and waste money?"
Just another step in a fairly quick shift to lives monitored by systems and reported on by algorithms.

There are all sorts of things that munch on mosquito's. If you kill the mosquito's, there will be other species that have issues. Everything from the mosquito eggs to the full grown adult, are eaten by other creatures.

Most people on the planet think that Google, Facebook and the like, are the internet. From that viewpoint, these companies are nothing more than the common park square in the middle of any city. Anyone can post anything they like, just like an ad for a band, or maybe an obscene flyer on the lamppost. Sometimes offended folks remove it.
What we are seeing play out is a world in which everyone that is on the internet, needs to be literate. Where writing used to be only in the realm of the rich and powerful, now anyone that has an internet capable device that can press some buttons or speak to it, can post anything.
If you use these services as an example of what really works for people, the youtube model works. The google model works. The facebook model works. It completely changes how many industries work.
The law is a different thing. Now, as we try to define the digital medium these things are getting parsed out for sure.
I hope that there can be some middle ground found, because now that the internet is the medium for what used to generally be verbal gossip, these rules aren't what the general public even think about.
For most of history, all but the last few years, when people did something socially unacceptable, it would only be remembered as long as those around them cared to remember. Now, algorithms and databases "remember" every time you didn't act "right."
Do something that is socially acceptable today, but not tomorrow? Its recorded forever to make sure that the record is straight and people know where you stand so that no one makes a mistake about your character.
Unfortunately, the rules that have been applied to computer systems and record systems are now being applied to humans on a mass scale. I think most humans have done something at one time that they would prefer they weren't judged by. Those days are long gone, and the days of mass penalties, and mass shaming are here.
What data do you have that says that public service advertisements are more effective at deterring people from smoking?
Group think is a very effective means of deterring some people. If your goal is to stop smoking across the entire population, then, as is it everybody's government, the government should be targeting the different schools of thought for what triggers them.
People do not think or process things the same. In some areas of the country they drink Coke. In some areas, they drink Pepsi.
Why would you think that just because someone isn't a Christian, that they hate Christians?
And on why its good to hear others opinions, many times its hard to tell whats going on in one's own fishbowl until someone from the outside points it out. This is something called perspective, and every human on the planet needs a dose of it now and then, regardless of their faith.

That was a pretty quick rabbit hole you just slid down. People that are to you, "low class", are not going to be fair? That really speaks more about your person than about anyone else.
I've been to jury duty in all possible courts available in my jurisdictions and I've seen people from every walk of life. Every one of them can wear a nice skirt or button up shirt too. Your presumptions don't work on the people I've seen when I've reported for jury duty.
We used to have to remember things, like phone numbers, conversion rates, and temperatures to cook things. Today, all of that memorization space doesn't need to be used. If you can pose the right question to a search engine, generally you get the right answer.
It seems that critical thinking is what is being changed dramatically here. Us humans like a good story to help us contextualize what we are learning. The internet is now full of contextualized summaries of everything under the sun. A good portion of what people call "Fake News" is categorized under this.
This is completely changing the way that humans process data now that most people have a second "brain" in their hands. It makes people good at the higher level of working on individual problems native to their studies. What suffers is the human soul. People need connections, not rules and laws.
Are people dumber? People "know" a whole lot, but without context its fairly worthless.
