Also, please explain how you want people to question the government, but support that very same government banning ways to find info to question it?
You in your other comment say "a nation of people who are unable to change their government with voting or revolution".
Under this definition, questioning government is going to achieve what, exactly?
I'm confused whether you see the entire people as only one individual? Very extreme view to say "if they can't dominate forget anyone opposing or evading oppression, as well as chances for contrary information transmission".
Continuing to question is important for when chances arise. There's also activism and guerilla sabotage. That's more than ineffective questioning.
How does VPN blocking that you support help? It does the opposite.
