If I’m not mistaken, even China’s firewall, people living there can technically get around it if they want to with a VPN? It’s just made so it’s not easy/obvious to get around. Or that’s what I recall hearing anyway.
This seems like the EU is trying to be what they claim [current government(s) they dislike] to be: maximum repression.
Yeah, VPN use is popular in China. The way I’ve heard it described is that the VPN creates just enough barrier that most people don’t bother, but using one isn’t really enforced in any meaningful way.
As always, when you hear any politician say anything about “protecting children,” they are plotting to take away another of our rights. They don’t really give a tinker’s damn about kids; if they did, they would worry more about feeding them, housing them, and educating them.
With few exceptions, most VPNs use false claims in advertising anyways. Take Express VPN, CyberGhost, Private Internet Access, ZenMate as examples; all are own by Kape Technologies which has deep ties to Mossad. The development center of Kape is located in Tel Aviv. All those “Top 5 Best VPNs” websites are paid promotions. Won’t be long before the only VPN servers you’ll be able to trust will be located in the DPRK.
If they gave a shit about kids, they’d stop at nothing until Epstein’s cohorts were arrested
There was an investigative report in Germany a few years ago in which the journalists demonstrated how easy it is to shut down CSAM sites online. Does the state, so interested in “protecting children” take action? No, because these initiatives are about censorship, surveillance, and control.
