August 19 marks International VPN Day – 24 hours dedicated to raising awareness about the crucial role that these security apps play in boosting online privacy, security, and internet freedom. Yet, this year, VPN usage has never been at greater risk in a democratic country like the UK.
As reported by the BBC, the children's commissioner for England, Dame Rachel de Souza, said the government "needs to stop children using VPNs to bypass age checks" on adult-only sites.
