Most of the people who use VPNs use them for work as well. It would be an impossible task to craft a law in such a way that didn't ban VPNs for business use, but did for private use, other than to just come out and say that.

Well you have to keep old emails for at least a few years for GDPR reasons. Frankly it's all nonsense anyway, data storage does not require cooling or active power so you can keep as much as you want without worrying about the environmental impact because there is essentially zero environmental impact.

All the other advice on there is good but whoever wrote that section is an idiot.

This is all theatre. They know they have no legitimate reason to ban VPNs. Their justification for all of this is protect the children if they start banning VPNs they're going to start getting asked some incredibly awkward questions about how that's going to work.
