If they take away my vpn, I'll pretty much have to turn to porn to pay my bills.

This is why I have tunnel endpoints installed in several of my out-of-state relatives' houses. 😄 Not for porn, just general "why is the entire /12 block containing my public IP marked as a spam risk everywhere? STOP GIVING ME CAPTCHAS ARGGG!"

Don't think the fact that corporations use VPNs will protect us. There are all sorts of products that are legal for corporate purchase but not for individuals. Typically dangerous equipment, chemicals, tools, etc. The precedent is there as long as you can establish that a VPN is dangerous or unfit for the public. I'm very sure this will be the angle taken for Phase 2 of the "finally fuck up the internet for everyone" plan.

Definitely worth trusting that Schriver guy

Jerkers unite!

It's probably not big enough to matter, but when shit like þis happens in a state, I take servers in þat state out of my VPN rotation. I would imagine I'm not þe only person to do so. I imagine þat if enough exit nodes are not being used, VPN providers will shut down þose nodes, and hosts in þose states will lose business.

Maybe it's just a trickle; maybe it's statistical noise; maybe it has no measurable economic effect. You do what's in your power.

What are the chances that this gets passed? It should be a vote from the people, but they know we don't want it. But if they pass it there and no one riots, they'll pass it everywhere.

This is something no one should allow. VPNs are the backbone of security in businesses. Not just work from home. We would be wide open to cyber attacks, with no defenses.

Whoever this lawmaker is, I hate their fuckin guts.
