We don't usually ask you to click on something that is not Windscribe-related. But this one is too important to sit out.
September 25 is the global VPN Day of Action, organized by Fight for the Future. Lawmakers in multiple countries are talking about banning VPNs outright. Not tweaking features. Not slapping on new rules. Straight up banning them.
That would mean less privacy, less access, and more censorship for millions of people worldwide. It is a reckless idea that solves nothing and puts everyone at risk.
What You Can Do Today
We are asking you to do one thing right now:
👉 Go to DefendVPNs.com and sign the petition.
It takes 20 seconds. Then share it. The more people who pile on, the louder this gets (and the harder it is to ignore).
Why VPN Bans are a Disaster
VPNs are one of the few tools ordinary people have to protect themselves online. Take them away and you are stuck with whatever your government or ISP wants you to see, while everything you do is easier to trace back to you.
This is also about free expression. Journalists, activists, and everyday people rely on VPNs to reach blocked information and connect with communities. Remove that and you silence voices, shrink access to knowledge, and give authorities more control over what we can say or do online.
Banning VPNs doesn't make the internet safer. It just makes it smaller, more controlled, and frankly, a lot scarier for the people who need it most.
Why We're Backing This
Obviously, we oppose VPN bans and speak out whenever we can. But we are supporting this initiative because Fight for the Future knows how to get things done. They were behind major internet freedom fights like SOPA/PIPA and net neutrality. They have proven they can turn complicated tech issues into something people and the media actually care about.
That is what it takes to get politicians to pay attention. Petitions may feel small, but when thousands of people sign and start talking, the issue snowballs. Journalists cover it, the public notices, and suddenly VPN bans are no longer something lawmakers can quietly sneak through.
Windscribe exists to keep the internet open, private, and usable. If VPN bans are on the table, silence is not an option.
