I suppose dvd order porn will become a thing once again.
Or alternatively we can start sharing bootleg USBs with our friends.
The Internet had begun its enshitification stage, as governments look to control and lock down access to the internet people will find new and creative ways to bypass these barriers. For one, things like Tor or going back to DVDs and physical media might get more main stream.
And this is my point actually, what are they trying to ban, is it the use of a VPN completely, or is it for only VPN that spoof locations out of country. (Which is what allows someone to circumvent the age-id, at the moment.)
Now that being said I work with people in the UK and they VPN into our office for network access and project file access. Does anyone see how this could impact access for Brits working with global firms for example?
Though a VPN does not provide you with guaranteed anonymity, it only allows you to access webpages and local services as if you were at that physical location, or on that specific network.
Connecting to your work office VPN and browsing Facebook does not make you anonymous, it’s just makes you look like you are sitting in the office.
How can you ban a VPN (virtual private network)?
I have a VPN setup at home and at my parents home, I can connect either as if I was at either location physically. My office has VPNs for connecting between offices and connecting from remote locations. And dont get me started about being and to purchase a VPS in any country you want, and run a VPN on it.
Does this mean people and companies can no longer setup their own VPN’s.
If this is about privacy and anonymity, evey bowsers on any device has a unique identifying fingerprint that allows it to be identifiable even using a VPN. So what is this ban even targeting?

How can I run this on unraid, and can I point it at multiple domains and sub-domains?
Pretty much, BTW you also want to disable WiFi and Bluetooth when entering big box stores.
They are notorious for tracking your phone, and by extension you and your shopping habbits when you step into one if their stores.
Does Denmark still have mail delivery for “other items” like small are large packages?
I would presume one could still send a envelope with a letter inside it located inside a bigger box or bubble envelope? One could even use the service to ship a fully encrypted USB or HHD if one wanted too.
In Canada there is talk about ending the national funded postal service as well (this one delivers letters predominantly), you can use it to ship larger items along with standard envelopes.
Its a strange idea to me though as people always need to mail things, so if the national postal service is shuttered then a private postal service will need to step in.
I truly believe our politicians are out of touch. Either because they themselves are too old or because they dont understand the underlying concepts.
What truly upsets me is understanding things like USBs and HDDs still exists. So if someone wanted to share “illegal content” completely “offline” it’s already possible to do so. How does scanning everyone’s personal “letters” help track down people sharing “illegal content” hand to hand.
But how do you ban VPN’s? Like am I not going to be able to remote into work or the office? Or will I now not be able to connect into my own private VPN that I run at home.
I for one will be going back to written letters for all further correspondence.
Wonder if my postman is reading my letters though as well?
I don’t understand how this keeps coming up.
Do we need to go back to physical written letters?! Or do governments want access to all our correspondence both physical and digital.
If you have not already done so watch the animated series Pantheon (2022). Worth the watch and goes deep into simulation and concesiones.
Second hand sales and flee markets, no cameras (mostly true) and you can pay cash.
That depends where your VPN is.
Say you access a VPN located over seas from your phone while on mobile data. Then your traffic is encrypted and your mobile data provider (for your phone) should only see traffic to one IP address.
Say you access the same VPN while at home connect to wifi or Ethernet on a PC (or on your phone), then your ISP should only see traffic to the one IP address (that’s located over seas).
Now let’s say your are tech savvy enough to run a Wireguard setup and or Tailscale setup at home and make your own VPN. Then you access that from work or from overseas with a mobile phone or laptop. All your traffic should now show as connecting to your homes IP address directly, but keep in mind your home ISP provider then sees you connecting to sites like Google, Facebook, or Lemmy.
I wonder if elephants have bed time stories about tooth fairies that come and steal your teeth
Same, I refuse to have my OS linked to anything other then a local account.
Especially since most email accounts now need cell phone numbers, and home addresses.
Don’t plug to many, otherwise people might start jumping ship!
If I run WireGuard at home as a personal VPN does it provide the same sort of QUIC obfuscation? Or is there something that I can implement similar?
Remember when companies like Google and Facebook got slapped with fines and fees from various countries for sumerizing news in “social feeds” on their sites.
News outlets were complaining about loss of ad revenue as a result of reduced traffic to their website directly, as consumers could get news summarized on their social feed.
Facebook even in some cases blocked news links in some countries from not showing on users feeds as a result, so as to be compliant with local passed laws and not pay fees or fines.
Then news outlets complained that no one was going to their sites because links were not being shared on social platforms. The very thing they complained about in the first place.
Guess AI summarising news is somehow completely different and a completely new challenge that politicans somehow don’t understand.
