alt Hacker NewsI don't know why people immediately have this thought, outlawing VPNs achieves virtually nothing in the UK. An adult bypassing an age check is irrelevant; underage users are at least mature enough to know what a VPN is - not the main target of the act. And there's virtually no real anonymity; hiding from your ISP doesn't make you untraceable. So why would they even consider it?

It’s naive to believe the goal of these laws is truly to protect children and that it has anything to do with age. That’s just the justification which gets them in the door.
