Comment on UK Official Calls for Age Verification on VPNs to Prevent Porn Loophole

There’s no need to go that far, there will still be plenty of well-known and trustworthy providers who care about the law but simply operate outside of UK jurisdiction.

  In that case they have to geoblock UK to be out of UK jurisdiction. Which a lot of these providers are already doing.
