They'll criminalize personal VPN users for non-work purposes, next.

Work VPN doesn't look any different to any other VPN to the people tapping the lines.

I agree, and whilst I don't personally bother with vpns myself because I prefer other solutions, it's one of the things that helps prevent insane UK politicians' bad hottakes on tech becoming law
