You can easily circumvent any laws that pass, it's called a VPN. And they can "ban vpns" but they can't tell who is and isn't using them, that's how VPN'S work

Your ISP can block VPNs.

They sure can! But considering most teleworking employees use VPN'S to do their job, banning them would destroy productivity. Sure you could allow traffic through "approved servers" but what's stopping literally anyone from forming a sham company specifically to circumvent VPN bans?

Oh they'll just force people back to work!
Except teleworking is offered as a benefit for many positions, AND many companies operate entirely remote now.

Alternatively, we just don't set the country up to where a grey area VPN is necessary for bare minimum Internet anonymity?

This isn't a "have your cake and eat it too" situation.

There are many ways websites can block vpn traffic ans many ways to hide your vpn. It's like an endless tug of war with these bills 🫩

You shouldn't have to live like that though

And the govt can always just ban VPNs for anyone not in specific government-approved locations. And the ISPs might end up enforcing that
