I just sent an email with my response to the TRA’s public consultation paper on the upcoming ban of VPN in Oman. I’m basically suggesting that they make a more precise definition for VPN and introduce an exemption for students to use VPN if they have to.
You can read my response here [PDF].
The deadline for responding to the public consultation paper is September 20th, if you have something to say to the TRA this is your chance to do it.

but your response wasn’t helpful for users like me who wona use Skype :(((((
Unfortunately there isn’t much logic in arguing that VPN should be allowed so that we can use it to access services which are now allowed the country.
That’s true, I’m just frustrated about the draft regulation lol. Do you think that they are going to be very serious once the regulation is in the formal form? Perhaps, if there will be nothing like ‘jail’ we could risk =P
