The UK government is the pinnacle of "If you haven't got anything to hide, you have nothing to worry about".
Potential police state. The only reason it's not a total nightmare here is I'm sure the police are so underfunded that they couldn't take advantage of all this bullsh!t, even if they wanted to.
This is effective "police state virtue signalling" to its hardcore supporters. Red meat to the dogs. It won't actually mean anything in practice.
Obligatory: But that doesn't mean you give up your identity, for fear of a more resourced and/or different police/state apparatus in future.

This actually makes it worse because this means it will selectively be used against "enemies" of the establishment. That and for select and well-publicized chilling effects.
