Maybe I'm just getting old-n-senile but I'd swear that previously we had been *very clearly* told that circumventing the filter would *not* be a crime. 

So: 
- as an ISP failing to implement the filter is a criminal offence. 
- as a customer circumventing the filter is a criminal offence 
- giving advice on how to perform criminal acts is (I'd assume) a criminal offence 
- so teaching people about ways to circumvent the filter is a criminal offence 

I'd say that someone's been watching too many Simpsons episodes.

So is this just bad journalism or is Conroy's mental illness contagious? 

Choice 1: route all my internet traffic via the corporate VPN from a 
(for example) Verizon USB modem on the East Coast of the US and be 
subject to Conroy's wishes. Three weeks later, after my ACK to that 
SYN+ACK, I'll have plenty of time to consider my next keystroke. 

Choice 2: route only the 1918 prefixes via the VPN. 

Move along. Nothing to see here (apparently).
