No more Pornhub? That will depend on what happens with a Senate bill::A Senate bill might cause the owners of Pornhub to block access to the site in Canada, its owners say.

    Again, if vpns are banned, and vpn software is banned, all US companies will have to abide or die. GitHub is American. Apple, Microsoft, Google, etc. Windows, macOS, Android, could all be forced to report. The year of the Linux desktop!!

    Your ISP knows where you go. They just pull the plug on IPs they know are VPNs.

      No, nobody cares about Canadian law

      How do you know an IP is a VPN? I can change the address of my VPS at any time

          They will comply, but the users won’t. Pornhub can’t tell you’re using a VPN

        Jfc. If you’re running your own vpn then you’re fine. Unless your host is in the States, and then installing it would be a violation. Detecting the presence of vpn software on a vps would be cake.

        Would they do it? Probably not.

        It’s less about would it and more about could it. I think it would be hilarious to watch any government spend time on this instead of… actual shit.

          It’s a Canadian law, wouldn’t affect America. America banning VPNs would be much more dire

          Also having a VPN in the country where pornhub is banned would be pointless for the purpose of going to pornhub
