In this perilous time of fascism/authoritarianism in the US I am concerned about government tech being used in the future to limit freedom of speech and restrict access to sources of info, potentially. What online tools that can help ensure access to websites, dissenting voices, etc., if and when a government attempts to block access, are available? Would a VPN be a viable solution? If not, why not, and what would be a better solution or combo of solutions? Thanks in advance.
I really appreciate you taking the time to respond in detail! Much appreciated.
