I mean it's still a Virtual Private network between you and the VPS (which is rented by VPS provider)
So technically if you are from UK, they might come at your VPS provider if they find that you use them as a VPN (law's kinda vague from what I can gather)
Your VPS provider wouldn't really protect your privacy for 4 $ so a snitch.
My point which fucking scares me if I were a UK citizen is that they just have to do it once to scare you to your guts.
Maybe I am paranoid but I couldn't see this shit happen 2-3 years ago & UK is atleast moving at a very dystopian rate and I am not sure if other countries might move in similar direction too if UK experiment turns out to be helpful to the people in power or helps in curbing out protests/real change in any capacity.
I know the law hasn't passed but chances are unless osmething very unlikley happens, its gonna get passed
What's up with democracies trying to imprison their own citizens in such sense, whether digitally or in person. Some countries feel like prisons rather than free land now.
These were the best benefits of democracies over authoritarianism.
I genuinely question with such points if democracy actually just becomes a dual party authoritarianism. Sure people vote but just scare them for real change just once. If a person speaks online, even if they use a VPN, just catch one extreme and scare the moderates from even ever saying something different than what govt says
