    Honestly I hope it passes and as a result dozens of companies just suspend their services in the UK as a fuck you. Like oh you want a backdoor into our software? Well eat shit then we’re not interested. They will back down fast if people’s shit gets taken away and maybe stop trying this over and over and over as they have over the past decade.

    Fuck the conservative party for their war on encryption.

      It’s not just conservatives (as the article points out). It’s happening all around the world by supposed democratic ‘left-leaning’ governments as well.

      Right now, Tories hard peddaling promises that will keep us safe. This is one of them. No better than the Brexit winfall promises
