Until your isp either throttles to the point of near uselessness, or outright blocks access to that VPN. Oh and allows access to this other VPN that they own/get kickbacks from, oh and BTW that VPN tracks your usage at the exit point essentially nullifying the reason for using it. /blackheli

You're fooling yourself if you think your data can't be used against you, no matter how "boring" you think it is.

Didn't say I thought this bill was a good idea.
But who cares if I frequent TD or Facebook?

Those aren't the only two sites you've visited today, much less this month, year, or decade. It's trivial these days to profile a person just based on their browsing history. Where you bank, where you shop, where you've been, where you're going, your interests, your political leanings, your religious beliefs, etc. This doesn't just make you easy to target for ads, it makes you easy to target for scams or other nefarious things.
Nobody is boring.

This is bullshite. You had one agency empowered with protecting our internet privacy, the FTC. Obama's administration assigned that authority to the FCC as well. Two agencies doing the same thing. The House voted to take it back from the FCC is all. Everything else you hear about it is spin, and wishful thinking.
LSU fan + possibly 62 years old + Links a Breitbart article in defense of a universally panned shitty partisan Republican bill that puts Internet Privacy at risk = Trump supporter confirmed.
Please stick to the Poli Board. Don't spew that crap over here.
