数字权利团体与 VPN 服务商普遍批评法规在技术上"无法执行"：商业 VPN 不断轮换 IP 段、住宅 VPN 流量与普通家庭宽带几乎无法区分，现有 IP 信誉数据库充其量只能拦截已知数据中心 IP，NordVPN 将其定性为"无法解决的合规悖论"与"责任陷阱"；EFF 警告，网站为规避风险极可能选择封锁所有犹他州 IP 或对全球所有访客强制要求上传政府证件——前者切断 340 万犹他州居民的访问，后者令全球合规用户遭受侵入性身份核查。威斯康星州今年初曾提出类似条款，遭强烈反弹后已于 2 月删除；EFF 与科技行业游说组织 NetChoice 预计将就 SB 73 提起宪法诉讼。英国、法国、澳大利亚等多国已出现类似立法动向，犹他州被视为美国在这一方向迈出的首步。
