There has been a petition. And it has received the aforementioned "lol no" response. The thing is though after the French set the capital on fire the age of retirement still went up, nothing changed.
Anyway, all we have to do is use a VPN to get around it and wait for the inevitable data leak, then the whole thing will collapse under the weight of its own stupidity.
It’s cute you think VPNs will survive this.
This is all theatre. They know they have no legitimate reason to ban VPNs. Their justification for all of this is protect the children if they start banning VPNs they're going to start getting asked some incredibly awkward questions about how that's going to work.
Yup they just want more control, they know they can't have total control. So why ban VPNs, only a fraction of people uses them.
Most of the people who use VPNs use them for work as well. It would be an impossible task to craft a law in such a way that didn't ban VPNs for business use, but did for private use, other than to just come out and say that.
and that this thing will collapse
