How can the regulation already be ineffective? It's literally been in effect for one day. You'll have to refine the standard anti-regulatory tropes in this case.
Get this: not everybody is consumed by paranoid fantasies concerning their government. And while your shallow understanding of China based off a few western-oriented articles here and there may validate your own biases do understand they have no real relation to reality.

They had been blacklisted from various activities, with 9.36 million of them prohibited from buying plane tickets and 3.67 million from buying high-speed rail tickets.
