The children's commissioner for England tells the BBC virtual private networks are a "loophole that needs closing.

This was bound to happen, and it’s ridiculous

    I have a great job lined up in the UK, I’m not sure I can take it up considering that is turning into this kind of shit hole.

      I wouldn’t take it up, honestly. Best to go for somewhere in the EU instead.

      The UK is a US puppet state, and pretty much showing it.

        I’m EU adjacent, with better privacy laws and definitely aware of the role parents need to play in parenting and of government overreach. I’m happy here but dem monies

          Hmm, I don’t know your situation, but if you’re living in Switzerland, Norway, the Faroe Islands, or Iceland, I honestly would just recommend staying there.

          If it’s in Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, or Bosnia, then yeah, fair. But I thought none of those had good privacy laws?

          Can’t imagine Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, or Turkey have good privacy laws. And certainly not any of the North African countries…
