Wikipedia is challenging the categorisation rules as the act will mean tough restrictions on the site. https://tech.yahoo.com/cybersecurity/articles/wikipedias-owner-challenges-categorization-rules-175128053.html https://www.techradar.com/vpn/vpn-privacy-security/over-340-000-brits-want-to-repeal-the-uk-online-safety-act-heres-how-to-get-your-say
