Totally unenforceable. You going to prevent people from downloading open-source, noncompliant Linux from Asia or Europe? Good luck.

They can certainly try. I don't put it past them to create a great firewall. I don't envy whoever has to maintain those blacklists though.

Ill throw my data on an offshore vps, load my lappy up with a dummy normal looking win 11 install, and drive my ass across to Canada if it keeps getting worse.

Fuck that.
