I'm sure the people who legislated all this into place were the first ones to access a VPN to get onto PornHub
I suspect they invested in companies that sell VPNs.
Kape technologies comes to mind, which owns Private Internet Access, CyberGhost, and ExpressVPN, and is in turn owned by an Israeli billionaire

Is there a wesbite that hosts all these connections? I'm sure if we could see the web of relations there'd be a little but of reasoning on top of this dung pile.
Using a VPN that is beholden to shareholder's mood swings let alone a publicly tradable company is dangerous
