2 UK BB ISP's trial new internet snooping system.
Wonder why the Government is doing this? To catch trolls, those accessing child abuse material, scammers, terrorists?

Or maybe just to help big business try to trace those accessing copyrighted material & illegal streaming?

Nope, just to spy on everyone, as governments do.

Even before the Government admitted to doing it, I always assumed that they would be spying on us.
What's the difference between a proxy server & a VPN? Which is better?

A VPN.
A proxy server just redirects web requests, a VPN routes and anonymises all network traffic.

Thanks. Which would you recommend? I'd like to try a free one first, I assume that these free ones will cause a bit of latency??
