馃毃 First the social media ban, now the UK government wants to restrict VPNs 馃毃

VPNs are a vital cybersecurity tool for businesses, politicians, journalists and families to protect data and communications.

Banning or requiring digital ID checks before buying VPNs would increase cybercrime risks and expose IP addresses to predators.

VPNs help people stay safe and secure online.

If adults use them to by-pass ID checks, it's because they don't trust unregulated age verification providers with their data.

We mustn't bulldoze cybersecurity with another authoritarian attack on the open Internet.

Tell the Government: Protect VPN use in the UK

Take action! Protect VPN use in the UK VPNs help people to stay private and safe online. Young people use them to avoid harassment, or protect location data. Companies use them to make sure remote log-in to their networks are secure. Journalists, campaigners and whistle blowers use them to protect their work and themselves. But the Government wants to force people to verify their age when they buy a VPN. This will deter people from using VPNs to stay safe and secure online. Why are the government proposing restrictions to accessing VPNs?
