Largely the ones already covered by existing laws.

Yes, that's not the answer you - or many people - want to hear, as it is
the complete opposite of justifying Doing Something re: changing the laws

Unfortunately, it is also the truth: for the most part, it's not a matter
of making new laws, but of correctly enforcing the ones we already have.
