That part isn't necessarily related to the human rights (though there is the matter of data being carried off to where-ever is liked, which counts IMO), but a suggestion that they are trying to use a little bit of good news (less pop-ups) to distract from bad news, of which there is a lot ATM: - Bad decisions wrt handling the Afghanistan situation - The potential weakening of workplace safety laws (starting with the relaxation of rules for lorry drivers, so they can be worked harder to fill the current gap instead of pay/conditions improving to attract more workers) and other employee protections post brexit - ... It is not unlike the tampon tax thing. They made a big deal about those no longer being subject to VAT on “brexit day” when in fact that had been agreed by the EU more than two years earlier and could have been implemented there and then (so women kept paying the extra for that time just so the government could claim a cheap win at the end of that part of the process).
