The US is a walking cautionary tale. I really hope the rest of us learn from it in time to forcefully reject this shit before it hits the fan here as well.

Not to mention handling media requests, as it’s constantly in the news.

There’s no length they wouldn’t go to to prevent people from enjoying things. Next they’ll probably find the culprit and press terrorism charges on him.

I don’t think independent forums exist in the eyes of many legislators. The internet equals big tech.

If they accidentally kill off the independent web they won’t even notice. They’re probably still on X, thinking it’s still hip and unaware alternatives even exist. Never mind trying to explain them about independent forums.

This comment was brought to my attention as it was reported for being too dumb to exist.

As I’m not a moderator of this community, I’ll leave that judgment to others.

However, I will point out that the Online Safety Act was passed in 2023, towards the end of well over a decade of British politics being dominated by the Tories. Labour only won the election in 2024.

So, despite popular belief, the liberals are not the ones taking your rights away. Unless you consider Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss, and Sunak to be liberals, of course. Which you might, as nobody using the word “liberal” seems to have even the faintest idea what it means any more.

The Online Safety Act is not about regulating TikTok, it’s about surveillance underneath a thin veil of protecting children. And it is very much a Tory piece of work.
