New Bill to Effectively Kill Anime & Other Piracy in the U.S. Gets Backing by Netflix, Disney & Sony
-
kinda, but you have to pay for access to more than 3 servers. protonvpn has a paid tier (faster speeds, more servers, p2p support) -- which people do pay for -- putting them in the 'okay' category.
also, it's a general rule that all 'completely free!' vpns sell your data, keep and sell logs(thats why they can afford to be free), have really slow speeds due to user overloads etc.
-
It's much harder when all your ISPs and the world's largest DNS resolvers block the IPs or resolving the DNS, which is what this dystopian bill proposes. Make no mistake, this is Orwellian censorship masquerading as piracy protection.
-
I only use vpns for porn hub lol so I guess I didn't realize people need vpns for more than that haha
-
By enticing you to pay for their office suite
-
It'll be super duper illegal
-
Brilliant. Make murder illegal now.
-
Same with freedom lol.
-
I checked it again and its STILL at 0 Cosponsors and sitting in the committees inbox if it wasn't already rejected.
-
Not in this particular case, not yet, you can view it's status HERE and it's still at 0 cosponsors.
-
is anime a form of Piracy?! One Piece I guess?!
-
Stop hiking prices on streaming services and making them awful to use while ending sales of physical media and I won't pirate content.
-
Brb connecting to a Chinese VPN so I can access content outside of the US Firewall.
-
Hard to discuss this bill since the text isn't even on there yet. But apparently companies expressing approval have seen it.
-
I'm locked into ExpressVPN for a year but I was thinking about switching to Mullvad shortly. ExpessVPN isn't bad but being in the British Virgin Islands does give me a bit of anxiety.
-
I don't currently sail the high seas, but clamping down on access and making it harder to enjoy content, increasing prices, blocking account sharing, and adding unskippable ads and promos make me want to pirate, just out of spite!
-
I have heard that phrase before, but I am unsure what it denotes specifically.
-
I have had pretty good luck with airvpn, but the ultimate is mullvad as I understand it, though relatively speaking it is much more expensive than airvpn.

We have literal Nazis stealing all our private information right this second…but THIS is the bill that gets to the floor?
Fiddling while Rome burns.
-
Even if it passed making piracy super extra illegal+ it's targeting google and cloud flare to block access to sites within 15 days that could still easily be reached outside their boundaries. It's political theater for mpaa riaa etc industry association lobbyists to show they got something for their bribes.
