Surveillance. Control of all messaging. Consolidation of the british internet into government friendly hands.
The age verification law caused the collapse not only of smaller websites unable to afford to perform the necessary checks, but also of LGBTQ resources, support communities for bullied and abused children. Force ID verification, make it easier to track people across the internet. VPNs make it possible for british people to circumvent those ID checks, so now they have to go.
Tor gets better the more people run nodes. The main danger with Tor is that someone can control enough nodes to analyze traffic back to its source. The best insurance against that is loads of independently run nodes. I2p is less convenient than Tor but actually a little more secure against that kind of traffic analysis I believe.
yeah on I2P all users are actively participating in the network by routing frequently changing tunnels, so every user looks as if they were using the network all the time
Why do they want this so badly.

They can’t stop Tor, which is run by volunteers is free to use and cannot steal or log your data – which VPNs can
Tor has its own problems and is not infallible.

That’s fucked up. Inb4 they make meshnets illegal too.
Yes, grab your meshtastic (or similar) gear now before you can’t any more.
These powerful people don’t need VPNs for their pedophilia, terrorism and privacy.
This is what you respond when they ask what you have to hide.
