They know. The "think of the children" angle is just cover to enrage the tabloid readers and to be used as a straw man against anyone criticisng the law ("you're a pedophile").

There will be no bread but we will still be surrounded by clowns
They will just instruct everyone to throw their obsolete AI pc onto the landfill like they already have been doing with machines that won't run windows 11

They have ruled out banning vpns for now but that's not to say that they won't just U-turn or that whoever gets in next won't ban them.
