Here quite a few of the popular social media are banned. They’re still popular but now every schoolkid, housewife and grandpa knows what a VPN is. Every time I hear such news, I am afraid of crackdowns on censorship evasion in those places too…
Does the article say anything about censorship? Usually bans like this are financial. So X offices would close in the EU and bank accounts seized and they wouldn’t be allowed to conduct business (eg with advertisers) in the EEA
That’s just my association with the word “ban” - blocking, because that’s what I usually experienced.
Yeah that’s not how laws usually work. Most legislation can’t censor (except some very oppressive countries), so ban usually means financial
Yeah, that would be less worrisome, hope this really is the case here.
