    I fucking hate the UK, so much.

    The MPs and Peers only fucking learnt about VPNs when this bullshit bill was being passed. They’re so fucking clueless about the whole thing. They don’t understand what a VPN exactly is and what it does and the fact their own government (hopefully) uses them, as do Banks (for security), Companies, and indeed, how it works.

    This will lead to more bullshit.

      Wrote a email to my MP for this exact reason.

      The OSA needs repealing. All it’s doing is either teaching people to follow poor digital hygiene practices, or forcing people to follow more risky methods of bypassing the OSA controls.

      Whole guise of child safety is laughable when they’ve made zero attempts to educate everyone (not just kids) on being safe online.
