Summary

I was reading The Free Press (thefp.com) from London and an article was automatically blocked to ensure conformance with the UK Online Safety Act. I thought the site was broken. It took a few minutes to diagnose the problem. 15 minutes later I had Mullvad installed and was back online.Talk about unintended consequences. How many other people have done the same?
