@angusm And there is no way these children will use VPNs to get around the new social media ban.

The UK government's plan to teach 10 million British children how to use VPNs may be one of the most ambitious IT education projects ever launched. Experts have praised the scheme, saying that a deft combination of incentives and peer education make it more likely to succeed than other, comparable initiatives.
"With the rise of autocratic governments worldwide, VPN-literacy is more essential than ever.” said one expert, “This bold project definitely comes at the right time.”
@angusm More likely they'll try to jail 20 million British parents who let their children use evil and illegal VPN services.

@Newhereish @angusm I realize that "exact opposite" is just a phrase here, but what would you do to address the problem of children on social media.

On side note. I've been a bit cautious about VPN sites because some seem a bit scammy. Is there a good guide to good ones to use?

@angusm Canada has a similar bill for age verification, and another bill requiring all online services to store data about their users for a year and hand it over to law enforcement without a warrant. So all the decent VPNs, messengers, etc have threatened to pull out of the country.

@angusm The UK government is pioneering its most ambitious advanced cybersecurity training program yet, which aims to give 10 million British children the skills the country needs to defend against the advanced hacking capabilities of adversarial nation-states and sophisticated LLM models, such as the yet-to-be-publicly-released Claude OmniMythos 6.7.
Experts have praised the scheme for its naturalistic approach to learning and its careful use of incentives to teach these vital cybersecurity skills.
"By placing an intricate set of challenges between what kids are nominally able to do and what they really want," says one expert, "We can guarantee that the next generation will be able to subvert even the most complex cyber-defenses, paving the way for the UK to become a world-beating cyber-nation."
