These morons really need to get a dictionary and look up "Private".

Saying its illegal to use one for certain purposes is meaningless, its like saying you cannot smoke in your house anymore, short of coming into your house to watching you, know one is going to know.

I think, although I cannot prove it, that certain departments of Governments etc do have the ability to monitor what traffic is being transmitted via VPN's, the problem for them is, it's illegal unless they can prove it's "Terror" related as to why they snooped iirc.

Let's not also forget, unless you have found a way to stop it and send no information to Microspy, then Windows 8 and up all send's information to Microspy regardless of if you have a VPN or not, and all the Government's need to do is get that information.

A VPN and even a Tunnel is not protection in the way that most think it is, but it's more of a "infuriation device" and it's not difficult for them to be blocked, banned, black listed or what ever word you wanted to use to describe them.


The simple fact is, this country was shafted by the Conservatives when they started this whole process, regardless of whether they implemented it or not, and then shafted by Labour who implemented it and are trying to use it, to control every aspect of your life, from movement to speech.


More rumours are coming out that you will have to provide a photo/live scan in order to use search engines, make purchases online, sign up to services like Sky, Virgin etc online, basically even to open a web browser they will want a photo or live scan.

Anyone know what the entry criteria is to North Korea as I would like to go to somewhere that actually still has some freedoms, at least freedom to breath without needing to provide a photo for each breath
