I think Utah's motives here are dubious here though. 

And honestly yes sure, porn addiction can suck, but really the only treatment is to literally stop jerking off. Smoking is much more powerful physical addiction. 

How are they being dubious? They can't ban the internet, and they can't censor websites because as you said, those would override our consitutional rights. They're raising awareness about it -- it's really that simple.

Addictions are addictions, it doesn't matter what form they come in. There are people who have dropped out of school because they were addicted to porn and there are people who have been divorced because of porn addiction. It isn't a light matter. Early intervention and knowledge are required in this digital age to help our children make better decisions in their lives. And yes, some people have had to use professional counseling to help with their porn addiction.

Utah has a history with trying to censor porn in the past, that's why their motives are dubious.
