PSA: UK users can visit all their favourite websites in Tor Browser. Just don't run your torrent client using the tor network. Thank you.

You can also access 4chan, Tattle Life, and other nasty gossip websites that the UK nanny state wants to ban.

And you can access the porn on Reddit and Twitter (though in some cases you'll have to make an account). And of course the "tube" sites work fine.

After you've done that, as a UK citizen, please go to https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/722903 and ask the government to repeal their awful law.

Tor is great but the bandwidth/latency kinda sucks for casual browsing activity. A VPN is a more realistic workaround to this kind of geofencing.

I almost said "solution" instead of workaround, but of course the only actual solution is to fix the legislation.

It's actually pretty ok for casual browsing these days. Have you tried it recently?
