"Britishes"!! 🤣 Love it.

But seriously, it's hardly surprising that VPNs have since taken off like a rocket, is it?

Virtual private network (VPN) apps have become the most downloaded on Apple's App Store in the UK after sites such as PornHub, Reddit and X began requiring age verification of users on Friday.

VPNs can disguise your location online - allowing you to use the internet as though you are in another country.

It means that people are likely using them to bypass requirements of the Online Safety Act, which mandated platforms with certain adult content to start checking the age of users.

As of Monday morning, half of the top ten free apps in Apple's app download charts in the UK appeared to be for VPN services.

And one app maker told the BBC it had seen an 1,800% spike in downloads.

Yeah, welcome to our world. 🙁

the entire reason for the UK law is to suppress dissent. Specifically to suppress anti-migrant dissent and protests.

Not the first time I'm posting this image. Won't be the last time, I'm afraid.
that image will be relevant for many, many moons
