Well, I'm by far not a fan of invasive policies either, but the CCP is constantly spying on its citizens anyway. No privacy and no phone-addicted youth sounds better than no privacy, period.
I'm not in support of trying to control what people do. And I'm guessing those for it tend to be in support if they believe they won't be subjected to it themselves, but would suddenly shift if they found themselves under the same policy.
That's how it usually seems to go. Individuals thinking they are above the policy and in a special class. Believing it's others that need controlling and not themselves.
