Also, government actions that restrict your ability to lawfully compute. If the government is restricting it, then isn't it by definition unlawful?

Yes, but that's why the rest of the text gives some more meat to right.

It's not so much that the government can't restrict you, but this law would raise the bar for what justifications would be necessary.
