    I can make the argument that someone that lives in Wisconsin to drive over state border and access the website in another state… do websites block neighboring states? What if they are on business trip and cross country. Ban that state too? Hell they might be on vacation in germany, better ban germany too.

    Your arguement is beyond ridiculous. Once a website geoblocks a region, thats it. States can sue all they want, but they have zero jurisdiction.

      Sites are already directing VPN-connected visitors to prove age with an ID. I’m not just hypothesizing, it’s already happening. I agree it’s ridiculous, but again, they’re already doing it.
