Wow, the UK sounds like an awful place.
I thought we were unique in this but frankly everywhere in the “western” world is talking about the same things. EU has chat control, Australia has similar efforts, USA aren’t pushing for privacy at all so it’s not a uniquely British problem.
It first starts with the “children” or the “bad actors/terrorists” and ends with a straight up fascist police state.
Agreed, but Australia and the UK are way ahead of the rest.
Ah its not so bad if you get so drunk your critical thinking skills go out the window.
Which you can do starting at like 15! So it all works out.
Hey, did you use a secure encrypted connection to make that treasonous remark? I’ve got 999 on speed dial, I’m on to you, you encryption terrorist!
I even did it over a VPN! I’m shitposting all willy-nilly and not even England can stop me!
Honestly everywhere sounds like an awful place at this point. Freedom is a thing of the past. A thing from a time whence literally everything we did wasn’t tracked, and in order to exist in society, you’re expected to submit to the tracking.

Yes but you can’t always disconnect. For instance, my healthcare provider requires in order to access your account you:
I will quite literally die without this so I had to get a new phone and a Google account.
