Twitter/X getting banned is hardly newsworthy. Banning VPNs (virtual private networks) and fining the people who use them is true censorship and an affront to Democracy.
Why? You see, you can determine that a person is using a VPN service, but you can't tell what website they're accessing. That's the whole point. So punishing a person just because they want to watch the Japanese version of Netflix is pure evil.
