No one has seriously discussed banning VPN's - one minister mentioned they where looking it and no one said anything about private keys either as far as I know.
If I'm wrong someone can drop me a link since I live in the UK.

I'm aware and it's precisely because it's not a new thing been seeing it for years, I specifically was asking for a citation for this government.
I don't rule out they are daft enough to consider it, I just think they aren't quite that stupid.
OSA was a "something must be done, this is something, it must be done" thing - they can appease the mumsnet types for a bit with it and would generally prefer it quietly went back to sleep for a bit.
Not least because it's gonna hurt them electorally because while the people who are slightly in favour of it where slightly in favour of it a lot of the people who aren't really aren't seeing it as either unworkable, stupid or unworkable and stupid.
it's been mulled over and keeps getting brought up again and again, the Overton window has shifted from "go away and come back when you're serious to", "christ how would we comply with that?" https://nordvpn.com/blog/tech-world-angry-with-theresa-mays-...
If you live here how can you not spot how every govt since they kicked out brown has been pushing for this?
