As title. Italy is decided to pass a law that basically creates a chinese-type firewall in the country. The question is simple: even if I’m not doing anything illegal, my VPN provider will have to know what am I doing to report it in case it’s illegal, or face jail.

So how could my traffic remain private in this scenario?

Can a VPN provider with no logs policy be held accountable of anything? Can it actually know what I’m doing?

    don’t have to break TLS to know what site you are accessing. The SNI of the cert does that.

    The specific url however is protected by TLS.

      They see what sites you are visiting yes but they do not see what you are doing on them. They do not see the content of the traffic. Huge difference.

          When you get judged based on what website you are visiting it is very likely that you are already the bad guy by using a vpn.
