So in the UK porn filters will be mandatory soon on public WLAN hotspots and even homes, reports Wired. Well, good for them chaps on the British Isles.
Only this creates a small problem. Being slightly paranoid, I am using a VPN provider to connect via VPN while on a WLAN hotspot. Too bad. In order to effectively prevent porn, they’ll also prevent me from ensuring my privacy. Because if I was able to use VPN I could still access anything I want (including porn), even if the normal access is restricted.
So sacrifice one for the other. A great prospect in a country which apparently spies on foreign diplomats during summits.
