This legislative session is sponsored by NordVPN. Staying safe online is an ever growing difficulty and you could be exploited by hackers. NordVPN allows you to change your IP address, making you harder to track, securing your privacy. Check out the link in the footnotes to get 20% off for the first two months and thank you to NordVPN for sponsoring this law.

It is much bigger. This is the strategy for closing the last bastion of democracy on the anonymous freedom internet. By normalizing identification, it sets the legal precedent needed to force it upon everyone. Normalizing the behavior in the idiot South means they will fall in line like the zombies they stereotypically are when the main legislation is pushed through.
