This bill will likely never become law. This is not just because it's poorly written, very loosely defined and completely tech-illiterate. It's because moral panic is the only thing the current UK government can rely on to whip votes and distract from the failures of all of their actual policies. Actually passing an actual law would make it harder to continue the panic...
- hilbert42 4y ago"This bill will likely never become law." Don't bet on it. From my observation I no longer believe the British public have sufficient gumption to oppose such laws.
- LatteLazy 4y agoI don't either. I just think politicians would rather make speeches about the "problem" than fix it. That's why this bill has been weeks from passing for about 5 years now... (the current incarnation is from May 2021, but there were a bunch of older versions with other names).
