The UK House of Lords just voted to push a VPN ban for under 18s and effectively anyone who refuses to hand over personal information. Forcing digital ID onto the internet under the guise of "protecting children", killing anonymity by design, and conditioning people to accept ID-gated access to basic online tools. VPNs are being targeted because they are the last thing standing between users and total surveillance. Once VPN access requires ID, the door is wide open for full internet passports, expanded bans, and control of who gets to speak online at all.

Why the fuck is the Lord, a body who holds the likes of Peter Mendelson in its ranks, being allowed to determine what the rest of us should be doing..
?
Seems like in Australia and the UK, which are 2 testing-grounds for the most austere WEF policies since the pl@ndemic, they are doing this crackdown on internet access to those under 18 because they will soon be adults and slide right into the total surveillance/control system much easier. I’m surprised Canada and NZ aren’t also doing this since they are also WEF strongholds….next will be the US in a few years….They disguise this totalitarian step as being a ‘safe and effective’ way to monitor online content for minors….
this is the dumbest shit ever
So much for the privacy justification.
