      First they came for the teens, and I said nothing as I was not a teen.

      Then they came for the VPNs, and I sai

      How do you regulate VPNs without breaking SSL/TLS?

      Edit: so people understand, when you connect to a secure website (HTTPS) that is basically a mini VPN so it could impact being able to connect securely to websites if they try to manage this technologically.

      This is all very predictable once you start going down the road of social media bans “to protect the children”

      All this censorship is wild when parents can literally go back to basics and start being active on their kids social media tech usage and some good parental block tools.

      Breaking news: old people forget that young people like to socialize, explore boundaries, and don’t like it when they’re told not to.

      Nihil novum sub sole.

      Once you start banning instead of teaching, it’s hard not to keep sliding further. Kids will just route around it anyway.

      „So, you’re saying that there’s a ’slippery slope‘? And that when the government bans/regulates one thing it just leads to them banning more and more related things? That’s crazy. lol There’s no such thing as a ’slippery slope‘. “ — people who used to own guns

      I use a VPN as part of my personal security. Are they gonna indemnify people who lose access to their finances due to being over-exposed by the state?
      If they want access, they need to provide insurance.

      How about a social media ban for 70year olds.  This is also a very vulnerable population.

      Genuine question because I wasn’t alive when it was going down, but is this similar to how weed became globally illegal? Like one country ‘finally did it’ and then the rest said “hell yeah, us too!” ?

      I guess I never went down that rabbit hole..

      I’m gonna call it now. After all these restrictions are in place, all of these countries/governments will push out legislation for a single, global, „child safe“ social media app. I’ll let you work out the implications of that.

      France is taking a page out of UK’s books and cracking down on social media and VPN’s, funny that it’s happening when people are saying there could be civil war in France soon.

      Totally „protecting the kids.“ and not „Cracking down on information for the surveillance state.“

      Better protest soon to stop the government France, otherwise UK is exporting its 1984 policies to you.

      It usually gets creepy fast when Europe regulates things to protect kids.

      Isn’t that the same France that heavily restricted use of encryption for everybody but the state until 1999 and almost enforced a general backdoor to encrypted communication last year?
