Problematic now that Firefox has a free VPN with 50gb / mo.
utah must have a porn problem, because they have pretty high traffic to PH, or its affiliates.
Of course, it's full of religious morons.

Good thing my firm doesn’t have an office in UT; we’re all on a VPN to work from home.

From my point of view, all I want is that Europe doesn't follow the US into suiciding it's own future in Tech by structurally dismounting the workings of the Internet for the purpose of autoritarian surveillance.
Mind you, given the seeming high amounts of corruption and kompromat for European politicians - especially EU ones - I fear that even here they might send us down the path of Technological Black Age to satisfy the short term desires of whatever large American Tech Companies that have them in their pockets or populist American or Israeli politicians holding kompromat on them.
Von der Leyen keeps pushing for Chat Control. Plus the age verification app they want to release. The EU is already following the US

Every website would be better served to come up with a way to block all IP ranges that come out of Utah ISPs. Better to just block the whole state than try to play this game.

Land of the free etc
The acceleration of the popularization of darknets continues, it's going to be a tough decade, but at the end of it, we'll all be more private and secure. Learn about Tor, I2P, and anonymous internet alternatives!

This is just another dog and pony show. If the company doesn't have any offices or assets in utah, then they don't have to care. Utah can censor it's own internet if it doesn't like it.
This law simply has no legs to stand on.
The point is it will spread. Unless you can convince people to jump to i2p en masse it not going to end well.
I have to wonder how a webtorrent based setup on Yggdrasil would perform…

Can we just trade Utah to, I dunno, Mexico for three bucks and a half eaten burrito?

How else are they supposed to find under age girls to marry
Maybe we should just start blocking Utah like folks block North Korea. Utahans clearly want only Facebook and MySpace, and it’s rude of us to second-guess.
