As we’ve said time and time again: the internet will always route around censorship.
Of course it will. I don’t understand why Utah thinks they can censor content when countries like North Korea and China demonstrate that a circumvention is always found.

One of the original design considerations for what became the internet was that it should be able to automatically route around outages and allow communications to still get through, even if many of its nodes were taken out by nuclear war.
Finding a way to get around blockages is practically what the internet was designed to do.

Believe me, I’m old enough to know that very well. I’m more flabbergasted that state lawmakers in Utah have the audacity to believe they can accomplish what a totalitarian state can’t.

Have you been to Utah. They started out as a totalitarian state, were forced to integrate, but long to return to their roots.
