It feels dirty to agree with an ISP on something. But even the worst corporations are on the right side of something from time to time I suppose.

Considering how many corporations rely on VPNs for their workers, I don't think this would gain much traction.

A number of countries are experimenting with registration of VPNs and blocking of TOR traffic.

And there are more than a few VPN series that are explicitly or implicitly compromised by the security services in their own countries.

I wouldn't try planning to do the next 9/11 on a ProtonVPN, for instance. The NSA is all over that shit.
