A Michigan bill, the “Anticorruption of Public Morals Act,” proposes a sweeping ban on a wide range of online content, including materials from ASMR to depictions of transgender people. Uniquely, the legislation also seeks to outlaw the use and sale of VPNs, tools commonly used to bypass such restrictions and enhance user privacy. The bill would compel internet service providers to detect and block VPN traffic, imposing fines up to $500,000 for non-compliance. Privacy advocates and tech experts express concern, noting the bill could undermine online security for all users, not just those seeking adult content. They also question the technical feasibility of a large-scale VPN ban, as providers already deploy obfuscation technologies to mask traffic, making enforcement both complex and costly for ISPs.
