    I think this is one if those laws where they get to selectively choose who to prosecute.

    …everyone is always a criminal so those in charge can do whateverthefuck they want with little regard for actual laws.

      Like every law.

        Over the course of the last decade, each year has seen an average of 2,685 new laws - the equivalent of almost seven and a half a day or one every three-and-a-quarter hours

        This was in 2007 in the UK. But I imagine it’s much the same in the US. Literally impossible for anybody to follow every law, but that doesn’t matter because as you say they’re selectively enforced

      Were it me…

      Wireguard is too obvious, so, Yggdrasil to an out of state or ideally country VPS, VPS to, you name it, tor, ygg, i2p, “the works”.

      but, this makes the barrier to entry that much higher. Any public TOR relay is an instant breach of the law and provable if the target IP is identified as one, and most could very easily be. One would need to go private, on their own hardware.
