      Next step is blocking access to foreign VPN providers. They are dumb fucks, but they are persistent dumb fucks.

          Only nutjobs like us gonna go double vpn+ tor. Not a single normie would ever go though this.

          Look at China. One can penetrate the great firewall but need to jump through so many hoops just to get a shitty internet connection to the rest of the world. Normies there just won’t do it.

          I think so too - we and many others won’t have an issue getting whatever we need. But the broad masses might not, and this legislation also aims at things like repair instructions and tools to fix your shit thanks to Section 1201 of the DMCA.

            Yes, exactly the point: first take access to information from most people. Then slowly close the trap more and more tight

        I got a disconnect for alleged piracy, all it did was give me completely free internet when I bypassed it.

        And the government folks, especially in the current admin full of DOGE boys and crypto bros, are even dumber than the corpos who can;t get anything right.

        Sure, obviously. These idiots can’t even tie their own shoes without assistants. But sure.
