I have worked for fintech companies that mandate VPN use as a security measure.

It's going to be interesting when the majority of the UK accesses the internet via VPN because of the increasingly ridiculous hoops that the UK makes them go through, and the government tries to stop them while also allowing VPNs to be used by the tech sector.

I agree, these are two separate legal processes powered by the same technology. But the internet doesn't have any awareness of legality (thankfully) so we're stuck with only the technical meaning.

They mandate you use Nordvpn? Or surf shark?

I doubt that.

		No obviously not. There are specialist products for this, and it's not hard to roll your own if you want. The tech is the same, though. That's the point.
