Banning a site is one thing.

Banning an entire communications technology, with abusively high fines for citizens who defy the ban, is on a whole other level.

X is not communications technology. It's a forum website controlled by a private company. It's not like they're a protocol or that they're infrastructure.

X is the site I was referring to.

Virtual Private Networking is the communications technology I was talking about.

Banning VPN's is what's shocking here.
