    I’m a Michigander. This will not pass the Governor’s desk, nor the house. However, it is a sign that the Christo-Fascist right is getting more comfortable and we can’t afford to give them an inch, or they will take a mile of porn away.

      Don’t be naive… This has nothing to do with porn or gooners.

    VPNs are used for remote work everywhere. They just going to instantly have everyone that does remote work just lose their job?

    • Also force any companies who rely on VPNs to move out of the state, further decimating their tax base.

      I wonder if an MPLS circuit would fall under the category of VPN for the purposes of this proposed law lol.

      Also good fucking luck, anyone could just proxychains through an AWS ec2 or anything else they have ssh access to in order to get out of Michigan, then send the traffic through whatever VPN they want at that point.

        Oh I’m sure they’ll carve exceptions for businesses. THEY matter, humans don’t. /s btw if that wasn’t clear.

        A lot of VPNS can go over 443 and 80 now. Just block all internet.

          And thus my new business model is born. For only $1/month, I will pay you to watch porn and test my payment processor by receiving a $1 refund.

        It’s just like the encryption breaking politicians. NO NO NO! Just let the GOOD guys have the keys.

      • In that case, they can only not regulate the crossing of the VPN signal across state lines, but they can still regulate your connecting to it, which happens in Michigan.

  • Politicians that have no idea how shit works back at it. Good luck enforcing this.
