Question as stated. I had a brief scan of the new law and it seems as though a 17-year-old in a tech role would be unable to access a corporate network if it was protected by a VPN. The law doesn't seem to offer a carve-out or protection to prevent this situation.
Given that children can generally work from 13, which is around the time that they'll be able to use VPNs, this seems like an interesting situation.
