No need to see the glass as half empty.

If the site doesn't impact government, nothing is lost except a little bit of folks' time spent clicking around their site.
If the site does impact government, then the 97% of visitors that oppose the bill will make an impression, something is gained.
If no body does anything on that site, then we risk losing our hobby and some folks' means of living.

I think it is best to not discourage people from acting.
