Lofgren’s bill would impose site-blocking requirements on broadband providers with at least 100,000 subscribers and providers of public domain name resolution services with annual revenue of over $100 million. The bill has exemptions for VPN services and “similar services that encrypt and route user traffic through intermediary servers”; DNS providers that offer service “exclusively through encrypted DNS protocols”; and operators of premises that provide Internet access, like coffee shops, bookstores, airlines, and universities.
Invest in VPN providers.
Why would you not quote the first paragraph that explains everything about the law?
TBH it’s not that bad since it doesn’t affect VPNs or domestic piracy sites, ironically. It’s bad but it’s not the apocalypse like some other commenters suggest.
Just a step in the direction towards that, though. They’ll pass it, and people will still pirate. Then, they’ll claim the legislation wasn’t enough and pass another bill further encroaching on our freedom on the internet.
Maybe, but for now she doesn’t have a single co-sponsor. LINK TO THE BILL
The fact that this dumb bitch is trying to do this, a blatant violation of open internet ideas btw, as the technocracy makes its opening moves is the real problem.
I’m not sure where you’ve been hiding but Net Neutrality got struck down when we voted Fascists into power, so maybe cool it with blaming the dems for that one, pal.
I’m only blaming the Dems that support and author the decline.
