  Thanks. Still no porn though, mostly tech related websites. Why are they banned by osa?

    Because… the OSA is badly worded, pretty damn oppressive and the penalties are so high that if they enforced them then well, pretty much ANY decent website will cease to be available in the UK. Simple really, plus it doesn’t do anything like it should do as users just magically appear to be in a different country…

      What you describe sounds either like incompetence, or like perfect censorship tool as intended. Wonder what it is.

      users just magically appear to be in a different country…

      So ban to vpn is next?

        Nope - banning vpn’s would be simple stoopid (!). Especially as most businesses rely on them for online security as does the government…
