    This is so fucking stupid, you cannot stop VPNs, because things like ShadowSocks exist. When will they learn that the only way to stop VPNs is to disable the internet completely. As long as the internet exists, VPNs will too. Ask your friend Xi Jinping about that.

      Xi Jinping will be more than happy to provide consultation work for the UK government. Stop giving them ideas.

      VPN use in China is effectively banned. Big corporations serve shittier Facebook that 99% of the population is satisfied with.
