Today The UK Parliament Undermined The Privacy, Security, And Freedom Of All Internet Users - eviltoast
The U.K. Parliament has passed the Online Safety Bill (OSB), which says it will make the U.K. “the safest place” in the world to be online. In reality, the OSB will lead to a much more censored, locked-down internet for British users. The bill could empower the government to undermine not just the privacy and security of U.K. residents, but internet users worldwide.

    Jesus Christ how staggeringly incompetent is the national government that no tech ceo can find a way to explain to them there is no way to govern content without having access to it via a backdoor, which is to fundamentally break encryption.

    Pretty sure they know that it’s not possible without breaking encryption. They just want to blame the tech companies because their bill ‘doesn’t demand it’.
