@mangeurdenuage The companies that threatened to leave, such as Signal, Meta, Apple, among others, are still here despite the law going into effect this past October. If they continue to serve the UK should this come to pass, they should not be trusted for secure comms knowing they could insert silent backdoors to appease authorities.

@mangeurdenuage Let me clean a few things up.

I was under the impression this was about the recently assented Online Safety Bill being amended when it's actually an amended version of the Investigatory Powers Act* from 2000, a bill passed under Tony Blair's New Labour government. This could hurt open-source projects that are depended on for security, such as OpenSSL, needing additional provisions to meet the administrative demand this would place on them. If they wanted to be arseholes about it, they could try and effectively outlaw those who fail to tell whatever technologically inept government of their intention to keep its users safe.

Software like Google's Chrome/Android, Meta's Facebook/WhatsApp/Instagram/Threads, Microsoft's Office/Windows, and Apple's MacOS/iOS, can afford to expend more money to keep the nanny state happy. It will be those who can't, and users who will have no idea what they're using has been booby-trapped, paying the price.

Correct.
