Dear Government. Quit trying to turn the Internet into 1980s cable TV. There's a lot of us out here using it for its original purpose instead shopping and watching Netflix.

Step 1: rent a $5 VPS anywhere outside of us government control.

Step 2: set up a multi-hop tunnel through said VPS using glutun and wireguard.

You are now immune to this bullshit.

Lmao

Remember when piracy was shrinking and Netflix was cheap and had a good deal of content?

Ah well, if only we can figure out what changed.

I guess we'll instead try prohibiting VPNs, when something is in demand.. prohibiting it always works great with zero unintended consequences.

So... they're gonna stop AI from doing it too... right?

Ah, the party of small government. :|

They'll really do anything to avoid making a better product, huh?

Nothing like passing legislation to force a collection of international communications protocols to ban sites the state doesn’t like….

God forbid some asshole isnt allowed to make a buck, lets hand over all our rights and privacy for the bottom line.

So employees that use a company VPN to access company files between offices are now breaking the law?

What about personal vpns that people setup to access their home devices, like a smart home setup or home security camera? Illegal as well?

"Should we improve our services or at least stop screwing folks? Nah lets bribe the government"

Not enforceable, what will they do about offshore VPNs? Many major VPN companies are already based outside of the US

They can't stop me. Who wants to join my private sharing network? Let's VPN it up.

I guess it's inevitable that the USA must copy China's approach to managing the internet... the existential crises are reaching a breaking point

Good thing my DNS resolver and VPN aren't american then huh?

I wish I could buy the Chinese competitor to Starlink and use it just so I could break even further away from all the surveillance. I'd never be able to afford a visit to China so why would I care?

These "small government conservatives" have been spineless for so long, it's hard to remember anyone ever made the claim!

Laughs in Tor VPN

Make Domestic Piracy Great Again?

How does one set up a system to only connect through tor?

Darrell Issa is and has been a miserable piece of shit for far too long.

Can’t wait for this to get applied to every corporate site-to-site VPN, every remote worker, etc. My employer relies heavily on VPN services provided by AWS. I’d be willing to bet the number of corporate users of AWS VPN users would be enough to qualify for this.

So this would apply to all vpn servers in usa?

Cool story bro.
