    I get what you are saying. My point about the sportsbook apps is that they won’t even let you login without allowing location services and verifying you are in a state that allows betting. I was just trying to highlight there are already systems in place to make VPNs a non-starter.

    I agree with you on the identity verification. I really don’t trust the sites this bill is aimed at to do any of this right or not have poor security. It’s a big cluster waiting to happen.

      That’s more than simple geo location. That’s a whole other ball of wax and it only magnifies how ridiculous this shit is.
