    This would make current work from home tech stacks effectively illegal and would cause massive problems for industries with a lot of money and influence.

      I think we may assume corporations would still be allowed to operate VPN. The ban would target commercial services that provide anonymity.

        Well then just start a VPN service where everyone is an employee instead of an user. Problem solved.

        Firstly it’s not going to happen this is just something someone’s claim to they can make a thread. Zero sources posted.

        Secondly I’d like to see you craft a law that allows corporate VPNs but not private VPNs and doesn’t have any loopholes in it.

          Laws don’t need to be meticulously worded to be logically consistent. They just need to be selectively enforced, like most other laws, to have the desired effect.

            Except that’s not how the law works.

            If you want the law to work it has to be logically enforceable if it isn’t logically enforceable it will get challenged in court.
