        Valid. There’s no practical way of implementing a blanket ban on VPN. Hell, I’ve set up a VPN tunnel to the UK that I use for work. I wish them the best of luck, while I grab my popcorn.

        If a ban were to be implemented, there would be no way of enforcing it.

          Hold my beer. Also, from the personal experience, shadowsocks is partially banned by a lot of ISPs
