It'd be a nice ironic twist if this gains traction and inadvertently teaches Zoomers/Gen Alpha computer skills and media literacy as they figure out how to circumvent the bans

IIRC the real intent is to target VPN use.

A lot of people in the US are saying they want access to the site pulled nationwide. Whether or not it can be executed there's enough support out there that wants to see them at least try.

He channeled his inner Shepard. Even on full paragon runs, everyone punches the reporter

I hate Tok, but the government shouldn't be banning this. It is unprecedented.

If they wanna do that then all they have to do is force ISPs to actually maintain and upgrade their infrastructure... Oh wait nevermind haha.

Oh, so all this bill is going after app stores that offer the app? That's easy enough to circumvent, especially on Android.

its probably going to be effective if they target ISPs though. Even a simple DNS block, trivial as it is to bypass, in unbypassable by most people since they know literally nothing about technology
