in Michigan there is a recently proposed piece of legislation that aims to ban content that "corrupts the public morals“ (which includes pornography, manga, and talking about trans people). It labels VPNs, proxies and encrypted tunneling methods as "circumvention tools" and would make it illegal to use them to access such content.

I hope people will start to see these blatant censorship proposals for what they are, but honestly I'm not too optimistic...

The scary thing about that is who gets to say what public morals are. And how this would normally be next to impossible to prove.

Seeing as how the US government recently said anti-capitalist and anti-christian opinions are a threat, well... hold on to your collective hats.

Donald Trump of course, the most moral of them.
