Is the Matrix based in the UK? I guess I don't follow why this UK specific law matters to anybody outside that country. I mean, if the Matrix is in the EU then is a UK law really relevant? If your website is not based in the UK then it's not your problem unless I'm missing something. Even if the reach of the UK was beyond its shores then the fallback is to simply ban that country's IP addresses. Sucks to be from that country but blame your government for draconian legislation.
- Arathorn 5y agoYes, the Matrix.org Foundation is a UK non-profit. It leans heavily on Element, the company which set up by the original Matrix team to fund Matrix, which is a UK for-profit. So if the UK govt starts incarcerating the team who created Matrix because they provide Matrix hosting, this is bad news for Matrix.
