    They would blacklist consumer VPN IPs and block payments to them, not prevent you from logging in to a corp network.

      It’s rather easy to setup a VPS with a VPN.

      so that law would again pretty much accomplish nothing

        Yeah but you forget, the laws of mathematics don’t apply here.

        So clearly Australia has some strong influence such that they could pull this off!

        Australia can still require VPS providers to log IPs. This is the country with the backdooring law, common sense does not apply seemingly.
