Good news, we closed that pesky loophole by banning encryption without backdoors.
If they can't decode it, you better be ready to explain exactly what those bytes were!
Check out my cool new protocol that looks just like I am loading a webpage about cat facts, which is actually a hidden VPN that I use to secretly look at webpages about cat facts.

Never mind search engines, Usenet was being used before people were using web browsers.
I'll read up more on it, seems interesting

There is actually a technique called steganography, that does exactly that. It is used to hide arbitrary binary info inside images, while still fooling your eyes into thinking there is nothing sketchy there.

Stop children using VPNs to watch porn, ministers told
The children's commissioner for England tells the BBC virtual private networks are a "loophole that needs closing.

If I had to guess, I'd say the government pushback against porn is a result of members of the ruling class catching their offspring with porn.

Do the government ministers understand that setting up your own VPN is literally a 5 minute operation.
Hire a droplet VM, pre-installed with a server OS.
Log in with provided credentials.
sudo apt install docker
Copy/paste a docker compose file that sets up a wg-easy container.
Create a peer.
Take a picture of the provided QR code.
Connect to the server via a wireguard app.
Done.Are they going to ban VMs?
What a VM? What's a server OS? How do I log in? What the fuck does sudo apt mean? What is docker? Now I'm editing files? A peer? What's wireguard?
So many of you are disconnected from regular people because you're chronically online.

Told!
Yeah, never forget how the people in power routinely gave Epstein a pass because they were participating in raping kids.
All this "for the children" is performative bullshit to take more power away from the average person.

Yes plan law makers needs to have a clue on what they are making laws about. Teenagers looking for porn are going to learn.

I've always been fascinated by the lengths puritans will go to prevent kids from seeing mammary glands, while simultaneously being ok with them watching blood and violence.
I've thought about this at length, and the conclusion I came to is that violence about self-sufficiency, while sex is about cooperation. With violence, you take matters into your own hands and you're in control regardless of what others feel. With sex, it's the exact opposite. You're at their mercy and they have power over you.
It makes sense in our hostile culture to teach kids about self-sufficiency and taking power for themselves. If they give that power up to others, then it opens them up to manipulation and exploitation.
I'm not making a judgement call on what's right or wrong, only what is.

The same teenagers that don't even use computers with physical keyboards?
I'd wager less than 1% of the minors affected by this will learn how to proxy through a VPS.

I know! Nothing about all this is new.
The only new thing is that the UK government is about to learn about those things.

If I had to guess, they don't care at all about porn and are using this as a pretext to censor sites that talk about LGBTQIA+ people.
And also to block access to any sex ed content that talks about how to protect yourself from predators.

Actually it was pushed by some AI corp, to sell AI for verification purposes, alongside other bad faith actors.

what's a VPN? what's a VPN app? how do I log in? what the fuck does a tunnel mean?
kids somehow figured these out. they'll be able to figure out their selfhosted VPN too. at least more of them might find an interest in tech instead of consuming on brainrot platforms.
sunbeam didn't describe it very clearly but it can be described in a way that its just following instructions without even having to understand it. like something like this: "register here. click this to get a free cloud server. log in to the server like this. paste this command and hit enter. install this app on your phone. tap import and scan. point your phone to the qr code on the screen."

It's a lot easier to get a VPN working than doing it yourself on a VPS.

setting up vps requires money which ideally children do not have access to (not even crypto)

I just deployed a few VM on my phone, not even a tablet. It's not that hard nowadays with websites being designed primarily for smartphone users

If kids have learned to run their own Minecraft private servers, hosting a VPN should be child's play... Pun maybe intended.

Hmmmmm, let me play devils advocate and say that kids should have access to porn.

They just got a motivation.
