If they succeed in banning vpn, then millions of people won't be able to do their jobs. Because tons of companies use it.

Some of us may lose their basic human rights but that‘s a sacrifice shareholders are willing to make.

Well my company officially stop using vpn as of yesterday due to this bullshit. So guess Allstate sees this happening.

They'll carve out a business exception. Only licensed users will be allowed to use VPNs. Everyone else is a second class citizen.

Which won't be broadly enforceable, but it'll fuck with people enough.

All you have to do is configure the gateway and client to use port 443.
