It's coming with the New RESTRICT Act

How can we peacefully protest and challenge this? I really REALLY hope this doesn’t come to pass.

Force everyone around you to immediately contact their representative and doing it on a very repeated basis.

Read the act, it only applies to people using s VPN to access a restricted service in the name of committing some other crime basically, the wording is vague enough that it could apply to anyone using TikTok through a vpn but that would be a lot of work to prosecute something so little, it isn't meant for individuals

That's what I'm saying. How do you track and / or inforce the no VPN thing? Our government isn't really known for being "tech savvy." I don't think they'll be able to truly inforce it imo. Plus, stuff like this gets challenged and revoked afterward due to constructional rights conflict with said act

Why?
SuperLitchi3000 OP t1_jedvan8 wrote
Because if the government blocks something, they don't appreciate you accessing it anyway.
It's for your own good.

Sounds an awful lot like Chinese Censorship laws...
MrJaxon2050 t1_jef3j8f wrote
Yes, but they use the China like censorship law to stop the China oriented app that uses spyware. Idk which is worse at this point :/

Just because its a crime it doesn’t mean it’ll be enforced. Look at piracy.

But... using vpn is not a crime.

It is in some places in America due to the content filtering in places like Florida.

It's going to be pretty soon. 20 years imprisonment is the minimum punishment
Correct-Addition6355 t1_jegmx4s wrote
Max not minimum
marshalzukov t1_jegneb2 wrote
My bad. Still a fucking heinous bill
Correct-Addition6355 t1_jegp45k wrote
I mean any threat of jail time for it is idiotic, and I think up to 100,000$ fine
