In a shocking new hack, the data of 43 million French citizens was leaked from a government database, onto the darkweb.

Yet the French government is pushing for heavy VPN restrictions, to collect and identify huge amounts of data, including even banning foreign VPNs that wouldn’t have to comply.

Simplified Privacy has grave concerns about such a broad and powerful expansion of government power, when they have not proven the ability to handle even basic identifier data on their citizens. We once again urge the use of Monero and warn against blindly trusting authority: https://simplifiedprivacy.com/france-hack-vpn-restrictions/
