NordVPN offers up to 72% off and Amazon gift cards amid UK Online Safety Act privacy concerns

The UK Online Safety Act, designed to protect children online by requiring age verification on websites, has raised significant privacy concerns among users due to the need to provide personal information such as photo IDs or facial scans on everyday platforms including Spotify, YouTube, Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), and Xbox social features. This situation has prompted VPN providers like NordVPN to offer substantial discounts on their subscription plans to help users safeguard their privacy. NordVPN is currently offering up to 72% off on two-year subscriptions along with Amazon gift cards, in deals running until August 31, 2025. The Basic plan costs £64.56 for two years (£2.69 per month) but comes without a gift card. The Plus plan, priced at £83.76 for two years (£3.49 per month), includes an Amazon gift card and extra features like anti-malware protection, ad and tracking blockers, password management, and email masking. The Ultimate plan, available for £129.36 over two years (£5.39 per month), adds 1TB of cloud storage, cyber insurance up to £5000, and a £50 Amazon gift card. Despite potential future legislation that could ban VPN services in the UK, these discounts and added benefits may offer compelling reasons for users to consider investing in VPNs to keep their personal data secure from potential breaches associated with age verification services.
