Nope. They'll keep burning through the 9,999,999,999 phone numbers from outside the US but you'll get indicted for a felony for purchasing VPN services outside of US regulations.
I mean I’m not answering the phone anymore if I don’t know the number, but hopefully my older relatives won’t answer the phone if they see it’s a foreign number, so that would still be an improvement.
This doesn’t apply to foreign service providers, right? Since they’re not subject to U.S. laws? I thought most private individuals try to get VPN service outside the U.S. anyways to reduce the likelihood of the U.S. government finding out what was being done over VPN.
Felony for purchasing unregulated services outside of the US. This is a slippery slope argument, but your VPN service in whatever country will be deemed as funding terrorism because they aren't federally regulated. These laws already exist, they just waited to be applied to the political dissonants that don't agree with the two party oligarchy.
