Comment on Pornhub blocks North Carolina and Montana as porn regulation spreads
BlackSkinnedJew@lemmynsfw.com 10 months agoWhat? Banning VPNs?
VPN can’t really be made illegal its required for business to function.
And you’d get the ISPs to ban pornhubs IPs not the other way around.
Pornhub is banning these states as protest to get attention.
Its dumb as shit of course since pornhub for all its faults is like the least shady porn site so it’ll just push people who aren’t tech savvy to shadier sites with more non consensual and stolen content and shitty popups
They don’t need to make VPNs illegal. They will just force liability onto these VPNs if they don’t abide by the state laws.
Say I rent a server in Canada and let all my friends connect to it. Then they use that server to watch porn. How would the Montana Jack-Off Police ever know that people from Montana are watching porn? All they would see is that a bunch of people from Montana are remotely connected to Canada. Maybe that’s where my office is or were all just doing a remote LAN party.
They will see you connecting to the VPN and use it as an excuse to seize your computer if they want to. It likely won’t be a thing they do to everyone. Just like in China, that will enforce the laws primarily against people who don’t toe the party line.
Personally I think any kind of internet censorship it’s dumb, but anyway they will do it if it means more votes for any “side” of the political class.
It’s the age of cyber warfare

You know how they are doing this trans treatment shit with Seattle? This is the framework they will expand to everything else. They will do abortions next, subpoenaing hospital record to prosecute state crimes. If that works, they will do the same for VPNs. Before you know it, Texas’s insanity will cross state borders, and the feds will enforce it if a Republican ever gets the white house again.
This shit is as serious as nuclear war. Vote Blue. Donate Blue. Act Blue. Or this will happen.

It doesn’t matter if you vote blue or red, both parties are owned by the NWO CIA, probably the best option it’s to vote independent but that doesn’t assure anything, with the level of technological development the secret agencies have right now it doesn’t matter who is elected, the only thing what could remotely work it’s a participative democracy instead of a representative one, all representative democracies will be owned soon, a democracy where people vote almost for any government decision would be the best but it’s hard to make it work it need a lot of education and the elites are precisely against education because that.
The reality it’s Americans don’t have any option than following the agenda.

I checked out after you started talking about the “NWO CIA” tbh. I wasn’t going to but the huge run-on sentence confirmed my suspicions.
