I think we’re now seeing what happens when the rich have too much control and people continue to let it happen.
People talk about free countries but is there any country left that isn’t working flat out on decimating peoples freedom at an alarming rate?
Free speech, Wage theft, the car you drive, the way people who don’t, or can’t work are alienated… even the way people vote are all used to divide people and make it easier to take away peoples freedoms!
It really is utterly disgusting whats going on but as we see in Wales, Labour is an even shittier, controlling party! 😞
now that the government separated the UK from the EU they should put propellers up their asses and push their pathetic island between russia and china if they wanna pass laws like that
Truly the UK is the worst nation.

“Hold my beer.”: The USA about to reelect Trump.
It’s admittedly a very long shot, but just the thought that the USA might be about to find out the answer to the question “Can a president be elected, then lose an election, then plot to overturn the results of that election, then fail, then be legitimately re-elected once again, then go to prison for trying to overturn the previous election, and then pardon themselves from within prison?” is utterly wild to me.
DeSantis would be worse. Competent evil VS flailing baby.
Trump will go away in at most 4 years even IF he get’s elected. This law will exist forever and will only be enforced against undesirables.
Oh, you know he’ll try to find a way to be president for life. And half the media will support it.
Cool. A Trump dictatorship would be just the shot-in-the-arm that our gerontocracy needs when he dies in 2026.
Did they?
I feel like this is yet another don quixote versus the windmills thing.
SSL, TLS, SSH, just a few protocols that float the internet don’t support any of the crap that the UK government wants, nor can they.
So either the entire world spends 10 years building a completely new internet based on new protocols that will be abused within 2 weeks, just because UK politicians are retarded, or… well, I guess the UK will just have to cut their country off of the Internet, a brexit, if you will. I heard those work really well too.
It doesn’t work like they want.
Coming soon to EU, probably.

Thankfully outdated but keeps coming back to the parliament/commission every now and then. Someone should just kill it already, I mean it’s pretty obvious it’s in direct contradiction with Article 7 of the Fundamental Rights Charter of the EU
The article is old, yes, the first one from a search engine. If you have a source for saying it’s not in the works anymore, I’d be glad to see it. Not saying you’re wrong.
Just this month there was a statement from FiCom (finnish organization advancing IT businesses’ interests) urging our government to not accept the bill, so to me it seems it’s just under development.
Looks like Spain is still trying to revive this but so far it’s a proposal to start a discussion on whether it should be introduced, so still far from actually becoming law. Like I said, keeps haunting us every now and then.
not my king
No Gods, No Masters.
I was confused why king for some time. Forgot she went skinwalking.
Hey, didn’t I have 50.000 ony bank account? It’s empty!
No, you logged in and transferred it all to some Russian account.
what do you mean I have child porn images in my files? I don’t have those
Now you do after your ex working at obs put them there for you
…
So so so so so many ways that this WILL be abused to death. Meanwhile actual criminals will continue using secure encryption protocols, good luck with that.
i praise the kids of great britain and the colonies for making uk leave the eu. may they have tea, biscuits, a broken economy and no privacy.
I mean it was the grandparents not the kids. If we had the same vote today, no new voters, no one changed their vote, it would be REMAIN, as enough LEAVE voters have died in the interim to swing the vote in the other direction.
We really need some kind of FOSS encryption service that can’t just be compromised like that.
🤔 Do you think they could force devs to fork over private keys to blockchains like Bitcoin?
Its called end to end encryption
I know. I am worried that the UK government could force devs to hand over the private keys to those end-to-end encryption apps under this new law.
I would hope no corporation would actually obey something so insane.
A good messaging application won’t have keys they can hand over. It should be Foss and have the keys stored by the user

Why are you copy-pasting the same comment on multiple posts?
It was an app glitch. Didn’t do it on purpose. Removed duplicate.
Did you just… admit to doing it on purpose, tell me to fuck off, delete both the duplicate and abrasive comment, and then finally claim that it was an app glitch?
