Though that argument can be made against pretty much any industry. For instance, some years ago, a local pizza chain closed down after it came to light that they'd been engaged in truly massive wage theft and exploitation of immigrant workers. No one argued for a moratorium on new pizza restaurants.

Knee jerk bans are rarely good policy, though there are some circumstances where a hard pause is a reasonable partial response to an out of control process having outstripped its regulatory bounds. I think I remember the Obama Interior doing that with renewable permitting on federal lands, for instance.
