I think the only real answer is going to be "it depends on too many factors people here can only LARP about really understanding, so ask a lawyer", and even then it still depends on what every individual judge in someone's case thinks.

I think it's worth mentioning that this only applies to unmasking an ISP's customers, not individual website/social media users.

In common with the opposition that ruled out the use of DMCA subpoenas in the early RIAA case, the ISP argued that these subpoenas don’t apply to mere conduit providers, as defined under § 512(a) of the DMCA.

The Hawaii District Court agreed with Cox’s reasoning last year and quashed the subpoena. The ruling concluded that DMCA subpoenas typically don’t apply to DMCA §512(a) services, but do apply to other providers that store or link to infringing content directly.

Well... like Bill Clinton said, it depends on what the definition of "is" is.

Verify our no-logging policy through code inspection

Couldn't a network appliance, iptables or a bpf program still be logging and we'd have no idea?

Validate that the code running on our servers matches this public repository

Yes but AFAIK it can't validate that the code you verified against is the same code actually powering your VPN session right now (could be a dummy box just used for validation), or that some other external hardware or superuser-level code isn't also listening in. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes but if he kept the money and just invested it, he'd have many millions more to give away, indefinitely.

I’m not sure they have thought this even minimally

If they had, I would think these laws would not exist in the first place.

Canada and the United States have banned or shut down torrenting sites, while Trinidad and Tobago imposes lengthy prison sentences for illicit media streaming.

I assume this is what they're referring to, although you didn't specify your country. Seems accurate to me.

For hardcore gaming, absolutely IMO. If you want to approach CRT-level motion clarity you need to get closer to 1000hz.

comparison of higher framerates up to 540hz: https://0x0.st/8FXU.png

The beam simulation shader recommends at least 240hz but the preferred speed is 480 or as high as possible.

Why are they only being ordered to block DNS requests and not an entire ASN or IP ranges?

These instructions were a hell of a lot easier than trying to get my GPU, audio, bluetooth and several other things working on my machine when I tried several different Linux distros.

Why are both of the bypassnro methods missing?
