Then what? They are going to ban the use of cloud hosting? The end solution is a national intranet, a great firewall and it would destroy the USA. It's ridiculous to even suggest banning VPNs, but that's the right for you..

I think the real problem here is politicians are some of the most technically illiterate people on the planet. They think they can legislate away problems that they can't...while ignoring the root cause of the issue (I'm mostly referring to the age gating of services, banning porn and VPNs isn't even trying to solve a problem, it's moronic)
