No, we “hackers” will mock it and develop workarounds for it, leak ID databases to undercut support, etc. Worst case we move to sneakernets and meshes and teach kids about old school floppynets. (When I was a kid all the best stuff came by floppy, sometimes by rogue BBS.) More likely we’ll just distribute guides on using Tor and build a better ecosystem around it.

I mean.. Tor isn't gonna help you if there's no computers. We already got smartphones banned from schools. Work in progress.

Listen to yourself. You are a fanatic.
What are you going to ban after that?

Why am I a fanatic exactly? Do you not see people everywhere going around like zombies on their phones? I think that someone who sees that but still wants to do nothing because of a vague principle that someone talked him into, is the fanatic.
Ignore the other idiot. If you want to have a rational conversation I'm open.
What's more hacker than experimenting to get the results you want?
