Making laws with the intent they will be broken is different from having an understanding they will be broken.
People break speed limits every day. There is no intent they will be broken but an understanding that it will happen. Overall though, people obey them and roads are safer as a result.
Ooh boy, you clearly have never driven in Italy.
The consequences are the same, even if intent differs: those breaking the rules, in this case not giving personal information to a 3rd party, in the other example speeding, are criminals.
If someone hits you because they love your, or they hit you because they hate you, either case you've been hit.
