So there are plans to ban the use of VPNs
But how do you ban VPN’s? Like am I not going to be able to remote into work or the office? Or will I now not be able to connect into my own private VPN that I run at home.
Yea and yes, are you a paedophile ? Think of the children! /s
That’s one way to get rid of remote work.
