And yet you can be jailed for a mean tweet and can't own firearms more or less. You have barely avoided (for now) a backdoor being forcibly installed onto every chat and messaging service, though you may still see required snooping on semi public platforms.
It is the tyrants favor to be seen as useless and weak.
- samwillis 4y ago> you can be jailed for a mean tweet No you can't. It's far more complex than that, you have to be a very bad person (or very VERY stupid repeatedly ignoring warnings) for that to happen. > can't own firearms Good! We don't want people to have them. (Only somewhere between 1-4% want weaker firearms regulations) > You have barely avoided (for now) a backdoor being forcibly installed onto every chat and messaging service True, and it was quite right for the intelligence services to lobby for that, that's their job. But our democratic system worked and it was prevented by the multiple levels of government. They will try again, but I trust the system will prevent it. > you may still see required snooping on semi public platforms And I wouldn't be surprised if there is general support for this in the UK.
