As far as I'm aware, anyone can set up a VPN through aws, which can then tunnel to whatever vpn, so they can't even really ban them, just disincentivize companies from openly operating. The UK seems to have given up on that particular avenue.

Anyone have a good guide on how to set one up like that, you know, for science

    They absolutely can ban them by making VPN use to circumvent age restriction a criminal offence. That'll drop VPN use in the vast majority of cases, regardless of who provides the service - a corporation or DIY. They probably won't go that far, but who knows. Point is they can.
