You could go to jail for USING a VPN to access those sites. It also allows the government to "regulate and shut down" any social media site with more than 1 million users. Meaning that all big social media networks would have to do whatever the government wants, since the govenment has a constant threat of banning their network at their fingertips.

      At least the Republicans name their bills shit like "The PATRIOT Act" or "the USA FREEDOM Act." Fucking paid to lose Democrats come out with shit like the "Restrict Act."

        They probably don't need dirt. Virginia is a colossal hub of military procurement and think tanks. Groverhaus :mcmansion: is one of thousands of shitty McMansions which were built from the largesse of the "War on Terror." The state's politics is dominated by the suburban sprawl of Washington. There are very few regions in the country which benefit more from the imperial project. Warner is representative of a class of people who materially benefit from the maintainence of this project.
