Banning porn encroaches on controversial territory, as it's usually implemented by requiring people to give their real life information to prove they are adults. I feel like even the biggest normalfag would think twice before giving such data to a site where he searches for his fucked up fetishes, and will fight tooth-and-nail to not have to. But maybe I overestimate normalfags. Still, as it's implemented currently, the porn ban implementation is far from ideal, creating real possibility of very vulnerable information being leaked.
Perhaps it's more of a societal problem that prohibition won't really solve. Pornography, nudity, and lewd imagery in general has become more widespread and normalized. It's seen as something "normal", and there's a tacit agreement that everybody uses it to "please" themselves. Social norms and pressure are powerful tools to regulate people's behavior, but it works the other way around - if something is seen by people as "normal" or "natural", they will not only not see any reason to change, but they will also oppose and fight against any movement that tries to forcefully change things like via banning.
And just like with alcohol, I don't think it's impossible to have a "healthy" relationship with porn and masturbation. I've read that Richard Feynman was an enjoyer of strip clubs, and that he actually did a good deal of his physics work in them. I think that cultivating such state of mind - just aesthetically enjoying a good pair of titties or nice curves without the impulse to immediately tug on your cock or getting horny is ideal. But it's definitely important to also recognize the pitfalls and dangers, and inform people about them. Although teaching kids about it might be a much more difficult endeavor, mostly in presentation, and due to possible push back from parents. The combination of sexual topics and kids is almost guaranteed to explode into some sort of nasty public discourse.
