ROFL I really must look into setting up a VPN for Chez Moose. Being a grumpy old git of a moose (old enough that even the supermarket ladies don't ask me for age verification when buying beer), all this nonsense is extremely irritating.

Trying to figure out how Keir Starmer's govt will reach 10 million children, to teach them the importance of using VPNs, when it also intends to ban their social media access -- the purpose for much of their use of the Internet -- until they're sixteen.

@angusm So uh, without a #VPN, your ISP can potentially view all your web traffic, right?
With a VPN, aren't we just substituting who can potentially view all your web traffic? Instead of the ISP, it's the people at the VPN that can view it?
The "just use a VPN because #privacy" crowd never seems to explain how one would choose a #trustworthy and #secure VPN.

@DanielMReck @angusm Use Tor browser then. It's going to be slow though

@MuhammadFreeSoftware @angusm Slow, yes, and I imagine a lot of the internet blocks Tor nodes just like it blocks VPN nodes, thanks to the unsavory types that likely flood those services alongside all of the legitimate/harmless users.

@angusm Just because our government is so questionable at the best of times...
this *is* satire, right?

@akromos @DanielMReck @angusm I used to daily drive Tor. Btw, the internet itself is kind of ARPAnet's successor, so clear web too "was a military project"

@angusm First, they ban children from social media, then they teach them workarounds?

@angusm I think they are doing to criminalize what should be a human right, access to the internet. By making it a crime, they can force kids to become criminals and lose some of their freedom and their rights. Get 'em while their young and they might never break free.

Starmers next project, the great british Firewall, inspired by Putins actions, all oversea cables will be cut, starlink usage banned.
What the twits are doing is to allow those who can afford starlink free internet access while restricting and dumbing down the rest of kids and youth.
Let it rain brains in westminster
