Unfortunately it does not work that way unless perhaps I am misunderstanding your comment. The traffic monitored by the NSA will pass through their collection points in each state and will be silently mirrored to them regardless of the routing of your ISP. Even if your specific ISP does not mirror data the traffic will very likely pass through ISP's that do.

I think you misread me. I just meant, if companies are liable for VPN users in Utah, don't even let me connect to anything in Utah. I'm good.

I realize all my traffic gets siphoned there regardless more than likely anyways.

yeah this be the answer.

the Utah DC is just storage. NSA copies whatever it wants to locally and backs it up in Utah.

Only way you gonna avoid that is to use a meshnet that avoid major ISPs
