What knock on effects do you see here, for state-led legislation about online privacy? Do we see privacy-conscious vs restrictive US states, and do folks in the (let’s say it, blue) states host US-centric Mullvads? Like out of state abortions.

Going further, how might this effect folks having “freedom is more important than safety” beliefs, given they reside in areas more likely to deny civil liberties-ish rights in the name of family values-ish rights, when this starts to really hit them where it hurts? Everything they do or say online becomes traceable to them, for a notoriously vocal-on-social media set.
