    The ad for VPNs at the bottom is perfect lol.

    Also it’s kind of ofcom to include a list of porn sites in their press release.

    Seems like a good argument for blocking UK ip addresses.

        I’m not sure what you mean by that. UK’s online identification laws create a data security liability and try to fine people for not contributing to the problem. It seems way easier to just block the ip and then if people want to get around it they can use a vpn or push to repeal the law.
