Prominent backbench MP Sarah Champion launched a campaign against VPNs previously, saying: “My new clause 54 would require the Secretary of State to publish, within six months of the Bill’s passage, a report on the effect of VPN use on Ofcom’s ability to enforce the requirements under clause 112.
"If VPNs cause significant issues, the Government must identify those issues and find solutions, rather than avoiding difficult problems.” And the Labour Party said there were “gaps” in the bill that needed to be amended.
Bye bye UK economy. How do you expect businesses to work without VPNs?
My guess they will block VPN services IP addresses like proton, shouldn’t affect business VPN.
But what if I work for Proton and I am in the UK?
Edit: it’s hypothetical
Your company will be forced to make you redundant.
dust off that resume
Ban remote working, vpn now only allowed from business addresses as registered with companies house.
VPN in businesses is mostly to secure internal use infrastructure against external threats. Use for remote working is an afterthought.
Oh that makes it easier for the government.
Maybe that the end goal, force people back into the office by banning vpn
Like i said, that won’t work, because VPN has more important uses than mere homoffice.
