And those people could fall foul of a new EO issued, that if becomes law will carry some heavy penalties

It's entirely unclear how this eo impacts VPN users or even sellers short of the ones you shouldn't even bother using anyway.

Also worth pointing out, as one youtube thumbnail put it "VPN companies aren't going to go to jail for you over 10$"
