The UK gov look like complete digitally illiterate idiots. The disaster of huge VPN uptake as a consequence of ill thought out simplistic age verification policy in the UK is stupid beyond credibility. We ARE led by donkeys. I said a while back that AI policy (in HE, and at national level) is being made by ppl who don't even know what a VPN is to indicate level of naïve ignorance. Now we know just how true that is.
