Shrug mostly.

Tech savvy like me think maybe I'll have to click the vpn button on the browser one day - not that big a deal.

Non tech savvy probably haven't heard of it.

The conversation seems to go something like: UKgovt: "kids are being hurt by porn and self harm stuff on mostly US and overseas sites - we'll stop it and fine them £18m if they do" US folk: - freak out - "how can they harm our precious websites?

Bear in mind we wrote 1984 and are familiar with that stuff and this bill isn't it. That agent Krasnov guy is more of a worry.
