With a lot of talk from governments around the world trying to either ban or restrict VPNs, I’m curious to know what are our options if they follow through? I know we can use the Tor network, but is there other options? I assume we could self-host our VPN since I don’t think it would be affected by a possible ban. Is there a less tech-savvy option I’m not aware of? I’m just trying to understand all of my options just in case a ban does happen.
Businesses use VPNs to secure traffic. I doubt they will just drop them when the risks are assessed.
We’ll see what happens, but I feel that, if they don’t ban VPNs, they are going to try and put restrictions on them in some way. I just think they don’t care if they break the tools everyone uses and are totally on board messing with VPNs, which is why I wanted to see if there was anything else that could possible replace them. I’m hope I’m wrong and they leave VPNs alone, but we are in new territory of governments trying to dismantle our privacy and I feel at this point, nothing is off the table.
Rules for thee. I really do not think a ban on vpns would affect business at all, it would be focused on the general population as we do not deserve privacy where the businesses do.
