"Part of this statement is a promise to examine age restrictions when it comes to AI use, as well as restrictions or limits on children's ability to access VPNs"
This seemingly unflushable proposal to restrict VPNs is surely the most important part of the article?
I'm sure it's the only bit they'll actually bother enforcing
Restricting VPNs? That's like trying to restrict the internet completely. China's tried that and failed.
They really tried to sneak that in there and hope people won't notice.
