The cybersecurity wrecking ball is turning to VPNs ‼️

It's dangerous to attack a tool that can help to keep adults and children safe online.

Age-gating this tech for UK users would increase cybercrime and put under 18s at a greater risk of predators.

So the answer to protect children and users is to ban vpns? Last time I checked, vpns kept you safe... So to keep someone safe, your plan is to take the safety away??? 🤔 not even a new born baby would come up with such a stupid idea. While the world slowly gets banned, military and government dont get a VPN ban 🤔 hmm, now ain't that something? I control my data and I make the best choices for myself and my data. I dont need a corrupt government who can loose £22 billion pounds!

All they really had to do was make it a criminal offence to supply children with smart phones.
If children access dodgy stuff on a computer in the home, that is solely down to poor parenting. Parents should be exercising discipline and supervision in the home not giving kids a computer or phone as a substitute carer.
