    This is dumb. Any decent VPN will provide exit nodes in non restricted states. Getting around this block is trivial

      It’s not trivial for most. In a space like lemmy? Sure, easy money. I have a Digital Ocean droplet out of Amsterdam, had it for years, $5 a month. No one here is impressed.

      The vast majority of people have no clue what a VPN is. Stop 100 people on the street. Bet <1% can say what the acronym stands for, let alone how or why one is used.

        Id say more people would know they have a vpn and what its for than people who could tell you what it stands for.

        Like average people knowing they have DNA and what it does but cant tell you what its an acronym for.

          The ‘p’ obviously is for porn.

      Until the federal government sees VPN providers “subverting the state” by “enabling” age verification laws to be bypassed
