UK MPs target VPNs in latest Online Safety Act debate

Well, that’s interesting…

Nothing but to set another bad precedent for worse things to come. They can’t ban things like VPNs and obfuscation tech. It will always be available.

If is the operative term.

Sure, if it extremely difficult for Chinese citizens to get access to tech like Tor browser, Tails OS, and Mullvad VPN from within but its not impossible either.

We can. Activism can. Let’s not operate with a defeatist attitude.

I would say it’s in the territory of impossible

Apple complied with CCP’s request to ban all forms of VPNs and Tor to bypass censorship

And that is unless you can somehow get tor browser on your Chinese Android phone in here which the firewall obviously blocks (not the Android phone, just the firewall there’s a difference), it is basically impossible territory.

The uk is just about to do the same

Also look at all the signatures from OSA and Digital ID, these have millions of signatures in total yet the government dgaf, Essentially they’re turning into an Authoritarian government, any activism isn’t gonna affect them if they can’t even take petitions with millions of signatures for granted.

Not mentioning even protests happening only for them to change nothing.

Sorry but truth is truth and I do not wish this upon Europe or US or others

This might help in the future: https://docs.earendil.network/
>Earendil is designed to work even if the GFW were deployed worldwide. It makes no assumptions as to most of the network existing in the "free world".

Thanks for sharing.

Age verification to use a VPN?

The UK: steals that idea This right there, this is good
