They can’t recommend using a VPN, but they can say “some users are illegally subverting the ban using a VPN. For more information on this subject see: [link to VPN guide].”
I read from another comment somewhere that the law or whatever said that they should not promote a VPN, not that they could not promote a VPN. Those are two totally different words.
However, your way is probably safer and not reliant on language.
If they don’t operate in the UK, why can’t they recommend a VPN?
They can outside of the UK, but for stuff accessible in the UK, they can’t. To be specific, I think it’s that they can’t recommend one to get around this law. They can in general, but not to avoid the law.
