The US government tends to follow this pattern. They did it with bittorrent and Covid. They make examples to scare the public into compliance. They don't tend to try to enforce things that are impossible to enforce at scale. They depend on compliance and self policing. Translation. Stay strong. Live as free as you can. Consider the tradeoffs and don't become a target. There is strength in numbers. We need to make it hard and painful for them to come for us.
