What do the new laws say about VPNs?

Losing net-neutrality seems like it threatens to derail free speech and lock-in monopolies. The ability to compete in a market and voice political dissent are considered by many to be natural rights.

Shouldn't we be prosecuting these people as criminals for attempting to subvert our human rights?

Does this violate our constitutional rights?

Usage of VPN probably can be an additional charge under this plan.

Since ISPs will reason if you are connecting to a "business for work", they'll assume you'll or your company should fork over extra for the privilege of being secure.

What new laws?

The FCC is getting rid of a law, without providing a replacement.
