Paranoia about the RESTRICT Act is not unique to me and a few stragglers online. LTT (admittedly a blog) and Louis Rossman are even mentioning it. I'm not sure about the fine and jailtime for VPNs but it might be possible. The phrasing is so vague, but if it's true, China's great firewall will look like a picket fence by comparison. I've used a VPN in China and so have my friends. Every day the freeest country seems a bit less free. Russia and China (while still worse) feel better every day.
