And all service providers/hosts around the world are expected to comply.

I forsee open directories and data hordes becoming popular

Inshitification of the Internet, who would have thought.

I wonder what it would take now to ditch the internet like one would do when ditching Facebook for example.

Fucking moron. The internet, even in an enshittified state, will still allow for content. You’ll just have to find it.

That is NOT the same as no internet or ‘time to ditch the internet’.

Australians soon engaging in wider spread adoption of VPN and tor usage.

Yeah. But the important question is where should we choose as our exit server. The UK is no good. Certain states in the US. European countries have rules. Are there any vpn servers in Africa or the Cayman Islands?

I wish there was a more clear answer to this question. I certainly don’t have it but yes there are servers in Africa.

I highly recommend finding onion services on tor to replace your clearnet services when at all possible. That way you’re not leaving the tor network at all. And there is no need for an exit to the clearnet at any point in the route.

Yes. The powers that be now understand what the internet is, and they want to fully control it in every possible way. Not only for their interests, but to make sure the interests of their enemies are thwarted.
