Während der Gesetzgeber VPNs ins Visier nimmt, könnte die Privatsphäre von Millionen Menschen gefährdet sein

‚the privacy of millions‘ is already gone. chump and his admin stole OPM data at the start of this fucked up presidency.

> In Wisconsin, Senate Bill 130 proposes that sites use “reasonable age verification methods” and requires the publishers and distributors of “material harmful to minors” to prevent access from known VPN IP addresses. Under the bill, entities in violation of the law would be subject to civil penalties.

Seems like an easy choice to just ban Wisconsin. If businesses and individuals get hurt from such a ban, then its the Wisconsin government’s fault.

> In Michigan, House Bill 4938 takes it a step further and proposes an all-out ban on VPNs and access to online adult content entirely. The lawmakers in support of the bill, called the Anticorruption of Public Morals Act, want internet service providers in the state to “actively monitor and block known circumvention tools.” The bill prohibits “the promotion or sale of circumvention tools to access prohibited material.” Violators would be subject to civil and criminal penalties of up to 25 years in prison and fines of up to $500,000 under the proposed legislation.

Michigan sounds like they’ll be banning themselves from the internet.

I don’t know how this is gonna work, considering the amount of people that need this for their job, and the fact that a bunch of goobers who connect to a public network end up getting their credentials stolen.
