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 the idea behind these kinds of laws isn’t so much the stated intent, which as far as I can tell is basically unenforceable, but to introduce a ton of extremely vague laws that could apply to almost anything you do online, which they can then use selectively against whoever they feel like.
Yes. And that’s worse.
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’.

This government is the result of multiple votes of no confidence and they somehow get worse each time.
I feel what you are saying, but tech ceos explaining governments things is the problem. I do agree with the rest of what you said.
“scan encrypted messages” is an oxymoron
Operator of the laser can decide what constitutes a corruption.
Dont forget the important part.
