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.
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! 😞

In the end faulty security always gives edge to the stronger and more malicious side.
So if you want to protect the weak and allow people to defend themselves, you’d want such mechanisms to not be rigged for any abstract noble goal, because otherwise you are going to get fucked very practically.
