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.
Once businesses fully implement zero-trust, VPNs are redundant.
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
Edit: an apostrophe
I'll just use a VPN to hide my VPN use and then they'll never know.
Good luck, I'm behind 7 proxies.
Sounds like a loophole to me!
