If companies are blocking Utah they are already showing they have no interest in doing business in Utah so who cares if Utah charges them?
China can charge me because I said “Winnie the Pooh” in a post and a citizen might read it and might think I’m referencing dear leader, doesn’t mean I have to give a fuck or do anything about it.
Like if a company does not operate in the United States at all and they break a law (however poorly written) from any given state, maybe they can choose to not care, but maybe they still have to because of any number of treaties with the United States. Or because of the outsized number of us internet users. Even Italy is causing people headaches with some of their absurd internet censorship laws. It’s just a problem when governments try to pass excessively broad laws about internet services.
