This is from the Age Verification Providers Association, who have a vested interest in forcing more and more people to use age verification. Most of these companies charge per check performed so they're losing money every time we use a VPN to bypass it. I wouldn't trust a thing they say, but it is worrying that they're pushing to go further because they were successful lobbying for the age verification checks in the first place, and our tech secretary is an idiot. If they do convince the government to pass a law forcing companies to try and detect VPN usage, that will be devastating for online privacy even outside of the UK. That they now want websites to ask for a users location is quite scary.
