My favorite is when the sites just block access to IPs in those states instead of trying to comply with the laws with a message that says "Your state won't let us do business and we refuse to violate your privacy." VPNs gonna see a huge spike in purchases, and lots of angry gooners gonna start writing their representatives as their favorites sites drop off one by one.
