If the UK ever bans VPNs, don’t buy the line that “only criminals need privacy”.
That is absolute nonsense.
Normal people use VPNs for banking, public Wi-Fi, working from home, travelling abroad, protecting business accounts, journalism, whistleblowing and basic online privacy.
A ban would not stop serious criminals.
They would just find another way.
The people it would hurt are ordinary, law-abiding citizens who simply don’t want every click, search and message tracked.
Privacy is not suspicious.
Privacy is protection.
And once any government starts banning privacy tools, you have to ask:
What exactly are they trying to stop us seeing, saying, or protecting?
