⚡️🇬🇧 NEW - Free speech is over in the UK… According to Neil McCoy-Ward, Here's what the UK Government Can Now Do Under the Online Safety Act:

- Scan your private messages (WhatsApp, iCloud, Signal)

- Censor protest videos from X and YouTube

- Force ID checks and facial scans to access social media

- Search your cloud files (Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive)

- Order surveillance without a warrant

- Silence dissent, even Wikipedia is under legal threat

Thanks in advance to the UK for all of the amazing workarounds that will come from this. 🫡

Got nostr

Orwell tried to warn us... if enough people grow a pair and actively resist/opt-out, we can overcome the tyranny... otherwise envision your face under the boot...

weak mean make hard times

⚡️ MORE - Under the UK's Online Safety Act, Ofcom can mandate services like Signal to use "accredited technology" to scan for child abuse material, possibly via client-side scanning on devices before encryption. This doesn't grant direct government access but requires platforms to weaken privacy. Signal vows to exit the UK rather than comply.

Remember, remember!

The fifth of November

So does that mean that they now have a stiff lower lip too ?

What is simplex going to do about it? Will they move from the UK

How would they scan Signal messages? Via iPhone and Google Android backdoors? That's the only way I can think of. Always use a custom ROM like GrapheneOS.

Doesn't need a backdoor Apple Intelligence and Google Gemini can see what your doing

And unencrypted backups

On Appe and Google phones, or GrapheneOS? Surely you'd need to drop the ball somehow and let their malware in.

On iOS or PixelOS where AI is built in to the operating system.

Gotcha. I don't touch those OS's with a barge pole, because of craziness like this.

Same bro, same 🤙 GOS & Fedora only
