@neil i dont want to be snarky... how do you learn about these things if you are not followings the news?? you are a good man.
A mix of things:
* RSS for blogs
* urlwatch alerts for updates on some sites
* conversations with people
@neil Amusing but performative. Nobody is gonna want to send their traffic directly to the US government.
Also, the US already funds myriad successful anti-censorship programmes, including Tor, so why aren’t they just promoting those?
@neil wouldn’t trust it at all, but I support the concept. Freedom of expression is under attack here.
@neil I doubt this thing will ever run reliably, this would basically be a huge open VPN into the US.
I’m sure content owners like Disney will be delighted to see Europeans access US contents.
@neil I mean, the competency of this implementation is going to depend on a lot of already-known factors...
