Cutting off entire countries at the level of firewall rules seems almost dehumanizing.

Ironic that they are (apparently) geofencing this, given that Californians being geofenced out of websites is a likely unintended consequence of their proposal.

Got the same message. Seems like people are more interested in paying for restrictions to others than restricting their own data intake.

Same here. Looks like wall fetishism has become a common theme in US presidential campaigns.

I wonder why in the current year™ this isn't considered racist too.

EDIT: I'm getting downvoted and I don't know why. When Trump issued travel ban on citizens of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen it was considered racist. I don't see how banning users from other countries using some other arbitrary measures is any less racist.

It will be just give it time.

At previous positions I've banned entire countries like China from our backend. The truth is some companies do zero business in Country X, so it makes sense to outright ban them to avoid the headache.

You should see the traffic I would get from people in china trying to hack in our backends. The funniest bits were seeing people trying to hit /phpmyadmin
