It’s a bit like “my kids will only eat chocolate” and the therapist’s response “where are they getting the chocolate from?”. If the kids are using VPNs then where are they getting the money for the VPN from? Is this parental consent?

    Most likely they're using "free" VPNs.

    Which is an anticipated problem too. Because those free VPNs are harvesting all of your traffic to sell; If you’re not the customer, you’re the product being sold. Almost as if opponents of the ban said this would happen, and would only work to push kids towards sketchy sites…

    Crazy how I got censored for posting that. Looks like there's some kind of concerted effort to suppress information of reliable free VPNs.

    Everyone check the modlogs to see what these people are trying to keep from you.

    well that was interesting. what is your justification @technopagan@lemmy.world because that is obviously not "spam". I'm almost sure you'll just delete my comment too instead of an explanation.

    It's also interesting you got 3 downvotes. too bad we can't check their owners anymore.
