No, it just puts your VPN provider in the position your ISP was in assuming they both keep similar records.
Well in that case, I would be OK since the VPN I use (ProtonVPN) doesn't keep any logs.

We can all sign for each other..
That doesn't work because you need signatures from within your congressional district.
Some districts can lead initially, the rest can catch on

#276This is just backwards. People in power should always have to justify their actions to us. Always. They should always be questioned. This (in theory) is how we ensure their power isn’t abused.

100% agree that the tradeoff of power should be a loss of privacy.

But most ISPs will have DNS lookup records. Most users aren’t savvy enough to set their own DNS servers. I’m not sure on the current status of DNS over HTTPS, but I’d imagine .gov could just compel cloudflare or whoever to provide logs.
Do ISPs generally have DNS lookup past records? That seems like something that would be costly with little benefit. I run small ISP and only enable DNS logging when tracing some problem.

And where is Bernie Sanders? It passed by one vote. He missed it.
It's a pandemic, and as far as i remember they didn't finalise a rule to allow senators to vote remotely[1]. I don't know if this is why Bernie missed it, but 3 other senators besides him missed it too. https://www.brookings.edu/blog/techtank/2020/05/12/congress-...
