Governments never present control as control. It is always framed as protection. In France, the justification is shielding children from harmful content online. But once the state begins targeting tools designed to preserve privacy and free access, the issue is no longer child safety but authority over the internet itself.

In late January, the French National Assembly passed a bill banning social media access for individuals under 15, requiring robust age verification systems on all major platforms. The measure, championed as a safeguard against harmful content, mirrors similar age-restriction laws emerging across Europe and Australia.

Now, France’s digital policymakers are signaling that the next target could be virtual private networks (VPNs), which is one of the internet’s oldest tools for safeguarding privacy and bypassing censorship. “VPNs are the next subject on my list,” declared Anne Le Hénanff, France’s minister delegate for digital affairs. This comes weeks after the social media ban was approved, as officials seek ways to prevent minors from sidestepping age checks using encryption tools.

@Richard I get some breaks and solid deals from my day job in the Oil and Gas world.

I also at least mostly understand the scene.

So I’m playing the hand I’m dealt.

I know not everybody has these sorts of things, but I also think lots of people leave money on the table not exploring what might be laying around with their employers.

Heck I had Walmart stock I cashed out at $45, that I got a 20% discount on when I bought it and worked for them at a $20 cost basis.

Wish I still had it.

Question for #php devs based on a conversation on the PHPC discord:

Do you think it makes sense for PHP projects to include a templating language (twig, plates, blade, etc)? Or is it foolish to do that when we have a perfectly good template language at home, in the form of PHP itself?
