Why hurt the people that you're trying to help. If this law passes they should do everything they can to increase availability of Signal in the UK.
- voxic11 4y agoYeah its weird to see this after reading https://signal.org/blog/help-iran-reconnect/ https://signal.org/blog/help-iran-reconnect/
- peterfirefly 4y agoIran doesn't have much reach outside of Iran. The UK does.
- abigail95 4y agoReach to do what? Signal is open source software. UK jurisdiction ends at its borders. If they don't like Signal they can ban their own citizens from using it. I don't understand what possible "reach" they could use to stop Signal exporting its products globally.
- peterfirefly 4y agoExtradition agreements exist. They can even be used with fictitious charges.
- tekknik 4y agoExtradition agreements also exist with Iran, they are a member of interpol
- NoImmatureAdHom 4y agoI don't imagine Signal is much concerned with complying with Iranian law. If you don't employ Iranians in Iran or operate infrastructure there, why would you care?
- b112 4y agoExactly. It isn't as if you would be arrested in (for example, randonly chosen) France, then extradited to Iran for trial. But it could easily happen to the UK.
