They mandate you use Nordvpn? Or surf shark?

I doubt that.





No obviously not. There are specialist products for this, and it's not hard to roll your own if you want.

The tech is the same, though. That's the point.


> The (proposed) UK VPN ban that was recently discussed here have a definition on what exactly is a "VPN" for the purposes of the ban (basically "VPNs generally advertised to normal consumers")

It’s not taking about IPsec tunnels between networkers, or a connection back to your home. It’s talking about surfshark


Maybe, at the moment, because when Surfshark is banned people will learn how to make their own VPN (like I said, it's not hard), or find some other source. And then the government will move to ban that, and we'll go round the loop again.

The point, again, is that the tech is the same, and there's no method for determining what purpose the VPN is being used for.
