    The UK has announced plans to fast-track legislation requiring “age verification for VPN use”. The correct term, however, is not age verification but identity verification.

    A law like this would require everyone to identify themselves in order to use a VPN. This would pose a risk to whistleblowers, violate human rights, and represent yet another step toward an authoritarian society.

            Eventually you end up like Russia, where all commercial VPN servers have been blocked for years but everyone either knows someone who self-hosts a VPN, or uses some sketchy adware

                @mullvadnet This is a struggle between commercial interests. Non-commercial projects are unlikely to be affected. VPNs are tools not only for bypassing blocks but primarily for creating your own network on top of the main one.

                  @mullvadnet So everyone should use a VPN, always.

                        @mullvadnet lol. This is an admission of failure if I've ever seen one. Since their safety nonsense tanked due to VPN existence, they're now trying an arms race. Good luck with that.
