That’s a valid point. The current workaround is to exclude cities, but being able to exclude states would be easier. That being said, if Proton VPN does this, they need to do it for all federal governments, even if everything is fine in those locations and there are no censorship issues.
There are at least 25 countries with federal governments, including the US, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Argentina, the United Arab Emirates, Switzerland, Ethiopia, etc…If Proton VPN introduces the ability to exclude states/provinces/regions, I expect this feature to be available for all federal countries at more or less the same time.
