Developers of apps that use end-to-end encryption to protect private communications could be considered hostile actors in the UK.
What the heck is happening with Europe in general? I thought they were better in terms of maintaining individual privacy, damm.
That’s europe, this is just UK. Brexit didn’t work out in a lot of ways they planned
I’d argue it worked exactly as intended.
The goal is to weaken the West by destabilizing our nations’ and organizations they belong to. They payed so much money for it that they bought into peerage.
Then explain Denmark
Tbh at this point I have zero faith in any country when they will just flip no one knows.
skankhunt42 has been trolling them hard and they can’t let it go
Who is shankhunt42?

What’s app 😂 how does what’s app ever get rolled in with privacy respecting apps
"Today, with the right information, right technology and algorithm, companies can create simulations of individuals, and use the machines to predict future actions such as purchases, locations, changes in career or relationship status.
According to a study published in 2019, there is a possibility of achieving 95% of the potential predictive accuracy for an individual using their social ties. This means that one’s social contacts are sufficient to predict their personal attributes."
I’m baffled that all this tracking nonsense is pushed through by a government that is supposed to be left of the tories. I guess that goes to show you that “center” parties can be just as evil as conservatives.
They aren’t left. Starmer and chums undermined the left-wing leader of Labour. They’re the pro-business wing of the party. New Labour folks were always dreadful for this sort of thing. Many authoritarian changes are coming from the centre, in UK, France, Denmark etc.
It all feels co-ordinated as states and their representatives squeeze down on working people.
I know they aren’t left, that’s why I wrote “left of the tories”. They are centrist and how Starmer ever managed to become prime minister is beyond me. That guy as a suit through and through.
You are exactly where the US was thirty or so years ago. Get ready for the hard push right to try to “attract the moderate Tories”.
Get ready for something they were doing 20 years ago?
Absolutely insanity.
Truly. This global push towards mass surveillance is extremely alarming.
Competition was always a myth anyways.
Pervasive surveillance is a hostile act. Abetting genocide and other crimes against humanity is a hostile act. Serving the rich at the expense of the poor is a hostile act.
It’s a kingdom. They have a certain old dicksucker as a king. And they, importantly, don’t have any historical or current reservations about things you listed, fortified by documents.
PGP has been around since the 90’s can you PLEASE shut the fuck up.
Like please.
Boys… When it’s considered a hostle act to demand rights, ownership, and privacy… We have a problem.
Let’s be hostile together then
Welcome to New East Germany.
Don’t y’all vote over there? Government isn’t us vs them. Government is us. Period.
We have been voting for greedy shits larping as conservative (Conservatives) and greedy shits larping as liberal (Labour).
and hanging over us are greedy shits who are pretty openly fascist (reform)
Up until basically after the last election this was essentially a two-party state. However much of a shitshow Labour is, the Tories were guaranteed to be much worse.
Also, there was a mind of unspoken assumption that human rights lawyer Keir Starmer would gradually move the party back to the left once in power, instead of spending 99% of his time trying to court the small minority of far-right voters who’d never vote Labour in a million years, which is what has actually happened.
And, unless there’s electoral reform in the next 3 years it looks like the actual far-right party will win the next election, because we’ve still got a system designed for a two-party stare in what is now really a 5-party state, meaning that Reform’s current 30% polling would see them with 100% control of the country, if the voting matched the polls.
Well many governments see their citizens as hostile actors, so its not really a change, is it?
If you don’t want your citizens to be hostile, don’t make yourself an enemy.
Stamer is running a social experiment, see how many people worldwide can hate him in the least amount of time possible. Everything he and his goons do is double down constantly on shit nobody wants.
You may think they’re idiots who pass Reform’s laws for them, but you are wrong! They also pass Conservative laws!
Starmer is a fucking terrible PM and we knew he would be from the start because the establishment wheeled him out to get rid of the Jeremy Corbyn problem.
Starmer sold his soul long ago, his big “human rights lawyer” past counts for jack shit - it’s history. He’s so unlikeable, stands for nothing, has no moral clarity, and has absolutely zero charisma. He’s liked and respected less than a dull secondary school headteacher. Even people who agree with his policies die of boredom and cringe when he’s speaking.
He’s alienated so many former supporters, and meanwhile despite adopting right-wing talking points and policies, he is absolutely loathed by the people who will vote for Fartrage and ReBørk. They think he’s woke, when actually he’s just useless.
Starmer has painted himself into a corner like a twat, and now has nowhere else to go. Labour could have seen it coming if they cared, but they didn’t care because Corbyn posed a bigger threat with some actual socialist policies that were gaining popularity the more people heard about them. We couldn’t have that, could we!
Labour smears Corbyn with bullshit antisemitism accusations, while continuing to arm Netanyahu and profiting from the genocide. A Palestinian genocide we’re not allowed to express support for a certain genocide-opposing nonviolent direct Action movement, without getting arrested?
Now there’s nonviolent political prisoners, held on remand with no trials yet, some seriously ill on hunger strike. All because Labour have no principles.
The whole lot is laid bare here in fascist Britannia. The Labour party is bought and paid for by the arms industry and the Israel lobby. Starmer is a loathed lame-duck PM and should go ASAP to limit the damage, but he won’t. He’s a hanger-on, an egotist with a messiah complex, much like Blair was. It’s already too late and in any case there’s nobody good to replace him, or anywhere to advance current Labour policies that doesn’t just play more into the narratives of the far right. The more Starmer plays on their terms, the more he and Labour lose. He’s lost authority and has no control of the narrative.
The Tories are in disarray too and are trying to play the “brown people who are clamping down on immigration” fool move, also directly playing on the far right’s terms and losing. Bad-enoch is also utterly uncharismatic, but in far more of a problem for potential Tory voters, she’s black and a woman! A tokenistic bit of lip-service to trying to be a modern political party - it won’t wash with Tory voters, they will smile and secretly vote to stab Bad-enoch in the back when she’s no longer useful to them.
If bloody Fartrage gets in though, it’s firmly at the feet of Starmer, who couldn’t be harder to vote for if he tried.
Because he’s so crap, and implementing fascist policies, he will be directly responsible for ushering in ReBørk votes, since he hasn’t really made the case for anything different.
What a fucking waste of space and very real fascist threat Starmer is!
I often wonder whether Starmer has even one sincerely held political beliefs or value. I’d love to put him in a zone of Truth (D&D spell) and just ask him what he actually believes.
It’s weird, because it means that I sort of respect the Tories more. They believed many abhorrent things, such as that a cripple like me is at best, an inconvenient drain on the country’s resources, and at worst, someone who is making it all up to escape having to work — but at least they sincerely believe that.
And tk think that you’ve barely scratched the surface of the actual shitshow that fucker is. I’m not British, but have plenty of very good British friends, and in my over half a century of age, I never though 1 fucker could destroy British culture and way of life the way this asshole has singlehandedly done, and somehow figuring out how to make it worse every day. I feel for the British people.
These guys are so fucking stupid. Security and privacy goes both ways. Either for people to use or not. If you don’t want encryption, fine, your online banking doesn’t work anymore
