Oh that's easy. Corporations would pick up and move to a jurisdiction without that law, and then just not comply. Or I'd make a lot of money running obfuscations services to technically meet publication requirements.
Personally, I'd try to find a way to use it to compel speech in the USA (I don't live in the USA but recall compelled speech being protected by the First Amendment). For example, your mind contains an algorithm that uses your phone to push content to your friends. In many cases, that algorithm contains a PIN code to your phone. Now publish it as open-source so the police can have it. Hopefully the pushback from this will result in the law quickly being repealed, but who knows.
