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.

I have no idea what Tattle Life is but two clicks in, first to “Offtopic” and then “The Lucy Letby case”, and Apple Pay pops up.

Not a fake one, but the real deal trying to charge me £0.00.

I don’t have the patience to investigate that further but I am all behind banning scummy sites like that.
