Summary

The UK is set to crack down on online risks for kids with new VPN rules launching Wednesday—and bigger changes ahead. By 2027, children will be banned from social media and AI chatbots, curfews may hit teens, and bypassing the rules could be blocked—all in response to parental fears and the Online Safety Act. Officials are racing to shield young users, with Ofcom helping enforce the crackdown. Safety for kids online is now the government’s top priority.
