A classic move by authoritarian tyrants, suppress the spread of information, outlaw the free exchange of ideas.

This is why Tor and other privacy preserving technology is so important. People's lives and wellbeing depend on them. We must not forget there are people in this world who are being harassed, tortured, and killed because they dare to question their government, dare to criticize their leaders, dare to think for themselves.
