My response to this will be signing up using Starmer’s details and picture and then trying to link the most insane and disgusting porn to him
Just 2 hours ago I went to our lovely UK crazy engineer Colin Furze since I remembered he has some nice deals on Surfshark VPN.
60 quid for 28 months is something I can stomach. >!Made that first wank feel that much better.!<
Can we just keep starting a new petition each week so they keep having to go back to parliament about it?
You think they would do that just go on the internet and ~~lie~~ give up more overeaching power
We should just do a new petition every week. Make them look at it every week.
But yeah we knew this wasn’t going to do anything, it’s just one vector in voicing our discontent. So contact your MP as well, and continue to refuse to consent by using VPNs and other tools.
I’m not surprised in the slightest. Please remember this the next time these charlatans ask for your vote.
When do we street rally then
“We will see your cum face and there’s nothing you can do about it”
Also, OFCOM are worthless in the online space. Unless they’re penalising someone for swearing before the watershed, they have no idea. They can’t even enforce a limit of adverts for YouTube, as they do with TV, because they don’t understand how anything outside of broadcast TV or phone/radio networks work.
Pity we can’t just boycott the internet!
Maybe start insisting we pay everything by cheques through the post or at an actual counter with cash
No wait…
Has there ever been an answer other than no for these daft petitions?
Bear in mind this is not the be all and end all, this is simply a statement of the governments current outlook on the matter, given by someone who isn’t a decision maker.
The people who write the parliamentary petition responses don’t have the power to go “yes, we agree with you” and do anything. The 10k response, which this is, is simply a “we are aware you think it’s a problem, here is the governments stance”
Since it got enough votes, it should now be moving on to actually be debated in parliament by people who actually do have the power to make changes.
Can’t wait for the shoe to be on the other foot
“vote for us”
“no.”
Very much the expected response, sadly.
Law needs changing to force a debate in Parliament, not to simply consider it
I’ve never seen a petition get anything other than
“We’ve considered it and it’s a no”
What’s the legality of printing instructions to use a VPN to circumvent the OSA and sticking them up on every lamppost and bus stop.
Bullshit, unacceptable. The risk to users is MASSIVELY increased. Scammer, fraud, ID theft, insecure ID systems. The risks are huge compared to forcing parents to be responsible for adding parental control.
We are not kids, this act is authoritarian overreach and disgusting abuse of powers.
Can we just take a moment to acknowledge that you can’t shut down websites that don’t want to be shut down, they’ll migrate domains with more rapidity than you can counter.
Then take a moment to consider that if such a website exists and is full of malafactors then, by there being “robust age verification” tools on regular pornographic sites, it becomes easier for children to access pornographic content on the sites which don’t have robust and safe moderation teams. In its attempts to protect the young-uns, it’s decided to make sure the wealthy ones will access it anyway with a VPN, and the not wealthy ones will be encouraged to places where they will be predated upon.
Can we look at MP’s investment activity and see who has invested in VPNs prior to this bullshit regulation? Dumbass government.
playing us for fools with this online petition shit.
Ah yes democracy, we have dismissed that claim
The government petition scheme is a fucking waste of time.
They have never even considered the outcome of one of these
They don’t serve you. They serve themselves
Democracy at work
Have they asked the police how they like the idea of everyone’s browsing habits suddenly going private?
“benefit from its protections” literally what protections, it stops basically nobody with an ounce of computer literacy, corrals god knows how much data in third party companies ripe for the leaking and frankly given the usual suspects backing acts like this I do not trust them to not stretch the definition of “adult content” to start sanitising and silencing things like lgbtq representation and topics. Forgive me if I don’t see a benefit here.
Regardless of your stance on it, it’s utter folly to try and control the internet.
They responded when Parliament was in recess? Oh they can fuck off and do the mass debate in front of the cameras rather than a press release.

VPN services thank you for your effective advertisement
Too bad none of the good VPN companies are publicly traded
We had decades of Tories screwing over our county.
Now Labour are in power again they’re insistent on being Diet Tory. Worse still, they’re doing everything they can to sour those of us that were concerned about Reform and considering voting Labour purely out of a protest vote to prevent them getting in power…
How about we don’t vote for you next election? Pricks.
2 Tier Kier don’t care, his bois go straight to his house where there is no safety act 😅
Well they just lost the next election to Reform who have announced they will repeal it.
“remember to vote for us next ti-”
“no, get lost we don’t want you in charge anymore”
“Government” and “effective” in one sentence. Hahahahahaha
I’m tooling up. It’s civil war time.
I mean did anyone expect anything other than a bunch of waffle amounting to “F off”?
It has not plans to repeal it at the moment. Considering the inevitable shit storm that’s going to erupt when parents find their children’s faces on adult websites….I have a feeling that’s going to change pretty soon, or at least be altered.

Who could’ve guessed
I’m genuinely not surprised in the slightest.
I wonder how much money they have made from their investments in VPNs?
Very predictable. These petitions never actually seem to do anything
Supreme Leader said no
Government: wow why are VPN sales through the roof, we can’t track anything now, how did this happen

Full waffle response here.
