🛡 Defend VPNs Day of Action

Today we join the global #DefendVPNs Day of Action.

A VPN doesn't conflict with a well-built age check. It conflicts with a badly built one.

A site-level check reads your age and your IP at the same time. Hide the IP, the check breaks — so lawmakers go after the tools instead. Utah now demands that websites age-check anyone physically in the state even behind a VPN: a location they cannot determine, because hiding it is what the tool does.

Meanwhile UK government research shows VPNs are only the third route around age checks. 24% of kids just enter a false age. 53% find services with no real check at all.

We don't claim children never use VPNs, but the response is out of proportion.
