@EUCommission if you got an issue with my VPN, you got an issue with me!

@stux @EUCommission imagine getting parents to you know parent propely rather than just banning everything... What a concept.

@Dragon @EUCommission but for real..

Terrible solution

@stux @EUCommission I finally surrendered trying to work 'with' governmental 'fake security'. I set up bogus emails, rigorous ad-blocking, MullvadVPN, and when sites don't let me in, I just delete the link and go somewhere that respects privacy.

@stux @EUCommission I think they're fully aware IRS mass surveillance, it's literally the point.

VPN's are a right. I do not want my identity to be shared with the exploitive companies slurping up data, aka Palantir. People are being profiled today, kidnapped and murdered by state governments every day, especially here in the USA.

If any of my data happens to be about women's issues, gender, sexual, my government absolutely will put me on lists and my future may be marked. I am illegal in my state to exist now. What happens if I do not use a VPN and cover my tracks?

Age verification is not a "good idea" for anyone.
It doesn't stop youngsters from accessing ' illegal" sites, they will find a way around it, but what these laws do accomplish is:

- Everyone, including you, will have to upload their official ID on the internet, thus exposing all *your* personal information to hackers via data leaks.

*Your ID* can then be used to do all sorts of fraudulent activities, and *you* will be responsible for untangling the mess -- it will take years , plus you will be forced to pay out all legal fees, not the website or the government.

Additionally, because the government can monitor every keystroke from your computer or other device, you could be penalized for your opinion....not to mention I don't want to live in a dictatorship like North Korea, China, or Russia --censorship is terrible for democracy.

-kids will learn how to become 'hackers' in order to circumvent law so, I ask you how does this improve the life of children or yourself?

Note: I will continue to post this for all to read every time I see the EU pushing for age verification because what you are doing is morally wrong.

@stux why are you yelling at EU comission due to a research paper reporting on VPNs done by a different organisation? Which itself just quotes another article with your contraversal take?

Do you not even check for truth before falling for social media propaganda?
