Digital Rights Advocates Return for Second “Defend VPNs” Day of Action

Digital rights advocates are staging the second annual Defend VPNs Day of Action, urging lawmakers to reject restrictions on virtual private networks. Organized by Fight for the Future, the campaign says VPNs help people access information, communicate securely, and reach healthcare and support services. Organizers warn that age verification mandates and online censorship proposals increasingly place privacy tools in governments’ crosshairs. Supporters can sign an open letter and contact representatives, while campaigners say using VPNs is a legitimate right online.
