Thats unlikely to be legal (or practical), as the UK has already found out with Apple.
Also, you dont need to buy a VPN, plenty of free ones about that you just directly download.

Plus you can set up your own if you want, the software to do so is freely available.
Same with proxy servers, you can (as I do) just make your own with freely available common software.

I really dont understand your motives here, its like you want us all to be under totalatarian state control, ask the North Koreans how good that is.

[ Oh, and I read yesterday that a spokeperson said there were no plans to control VPNs, just clueless people saying someone should ].
