I’m shocked that this many people feel the need to disobey a rule that is only there to help the children. Next step must be to ban VPNs altogether, and enforcing all Internet users to be identified with their real identity (/s obviously).
The only way the sovereign nation of France can ban VPN companies not based in France is to block the IP address of every single entry point of every single VPN company and keep doing so as they add new entry points (I bet the response on the VPN company side would be to start having some kind of dynamic VPN server thing).
And then, as somebody else already pointed out, any technically inclined person can just rent a VPS anywhere in the World and fire up their own VPN server on it.
It’s called DNS tunneling it’s typically used for data exfiltration tactics, but it’s also great if you’re desperate to punch through even the toughest paid WiFi paywalls to Google something really quick slow because you fucked something up on your phone lmao
if the VPN ban doesn’t work then the only reasonable course of action would be to ban the internet entirely. it’s the only way the children can be truly safe.

The VPNs will be harder to ban. Not just from a technical standpoint, but politically as well. Big businesses will be absolutely opposed to VPN bans.
There will be a lot of businesses who feel the (justified) need to hide the entrypoint to their infrastructure behind a VPN.
I feel they could easily ban VPN companies (maybe?), which is what 99.9% of people that want to browse from a different location use.
This won’t affect companies at all as they would be using their own VPN.
VPN becomes VPS and life goes on.

Jokes on them I just have an incredibly high volume of DNS traffic
That’ll be really slow.
Can confirm, used DNS proxying to bypass cruise ship WiFi paywall once. It worked, but god damn did it send me into dialup flashback lmao
I’d like to hear more about how that works…

quickslow because you fucked something up on your phone lmaohttps://dmachard.github.io/posts/0047-dns-tunneling-overview/
Wait, this can’t just be another useless DNS blocking, or is it?

I was making a joke about running wireguard over UDP/53

Teacher, leave the kids alone!
All and all its just a-nother dick in the porn.

Back to the Minitel !
Honestly and truly, I don’t think humanity is ready for the internet.
