    Sees dissent on the internet.

    1. Mandatory opt-out ISP porn filter
    2. Age verification for porn, also covering every other site with any adult discussion.
    3. Crackdown on “Icky” niches, to build consensus for
    4. VPN ban

    And now dissent on the internet can be prosecuted.

      All the age verification stuff is just the excuse to de-anonymize your online accounts, all without needing to get a warrant and go through an ISP for the IP, etc. so they can easily identify an individual directly whenever you say something online. And if you use the same username everywhere, they only need to identify one to know who you are with 99% certainty.

      It has nothing to do with age or porn, that’s just the easy excuse.
