When a state enforces a law like this, forcing all traffic through routers they control, presumably it makes it easier to detect traffic using VPNs/Tor? I'm guessing this would have to be done through some kind of heuristics based mechanism?

Where was anything about forcing traffic? They just made fake news and criticising the state fineable offences.
