  • They do make as pretty good product and dedicate much to r&d and on the community in general. I know premium brands which are more openly extortionate and care little about their customers.

    What I mean to say is that quality is not solely in the product itself (even though they are very serious about quality in that aspect too).

    I mean value wise there are cheaper plastic toy choices, but there’s nothing close to what Lego does.

    This title seems misleading.

    The EP paper appears to be highlighting the existence of a debate regarding VPN.

    Relevant quote:

    "Some argue that this is a loophole in the legislation that needs closing and call for age verification to be required for VPNs as well. In response, some VPN providers argue that they do not share information with third parties and state that their services are not intended for use by children in the first place. The Children’s Commissioner for England has called for VPNs to be restricted to adult use only.

    While privacy advocates argue that imposing age-verification requirements on VPNs would pose significant risk to anonymity and date protection, child-safety campaigners claim that their widespread use by minors requires a regulatory response. Pornhub and other large pornography platforms have reportedly lost web traffic following the enforcement of age-verification rules in the UK, while VPN apps have reached the top of download rankings."

    Of course I’m not saying the EU won’t regulate VPNs, but nowhere in this paper is “the EU” stating that VPNs need closing.
