Only if other countries follow, but with such a small market it’s easier to just abandon the UK.
Crossing my fingers that if they go through with this, all tech companies just stop doing business in the UK, causing them to realize what a horrible mistake they have made and undo it quickly.
Not to mention people who will just up and leave. The Tory party have been turning this country to shit.
- Australia has entered the unencrypted chat *
Thankfully the right wing party has been booted out nationally here now. The political will to ban encryption has lessened a fair bit.
Oh we know already. ;)
When this goes ahead, and it probably will, I hope that every single app implements it in a totally different, unfriendly, unautomated, way, or even better, make it unique per person, per app. Or, even multiple methods that are only available at certain times of certain days. It’ll be absolutely useless to the government if they have to wade through mud to get at the data.
I think with this they are even worst than China… Getting UK back to the top of at least one list must be the goal here.
No its not, companys and services effected will just nit service UK anymore or are completely unreachable for them…
Maybe if the EU did this, something like that would happen. With the UK? Pull your headquarters out there and dare them to block your service.
Go ahead, ban all messaging services and cause riots. I’ll wait.
this chat is 100% private its only me, you and British Glowies. see perfectly private. its stupid that the british goverment thinks there can be spying and still be private, it contradicts itself. i hope they throw this legislation out because privacy is a right not an option.
We should just erode UK instead. We don’t need tea. I’ll miss their comedy shows tho
We don’t need tea
Like they are some magical huge exporter of it. They’ve exported much more heinous things that 100% are justifications for eroding the UK.
