      Bizarre how prescient the idea of the Telescreen was.

      Even down to the form factor.

      To keep children safe we have to limit you’re activities… 

      Freedom and safety come with a lot of limitations…

      This got to be a joke. If they are serious than there will be a great firewall around the UK.

      Mass surveillance of all files shared this is totally Orwellian stuff. Alongside the facial recognition and digital ID I am honestly disgusted at what this country is turning into

      Time to go back to physically hard drives and use the cloud as little as possible then.

      Even if you trusted this government (I don’t know why you would) to not abuse this, this lays a nice easy fundation for much worse governments to expand beyond this.

      For example you could have a totalitarian religious government using it to arrest anyone for “deviant sexuality” which could be basically anything other than heterosexual sex for procreation. Or totalitarian governments scanning everything you say or send to see if you’re saying anything they don’t like.

      I guess those kinds of governments would just set up their own systems any way, but that doesn’t mean we need to make it easier for them. It’s time to accept that freedom comes with some level of risk and stop trying to wrap everything in bubble wrap.

      The UK has officially turned into North Korea, what a joke

      It wasn’t that long ago that people used to talk about China and how they were controlled by their government. While that was going on our government was quietly saying “we want some of that”. Same with the social credit score. I’m sure it is already a plan. We can no longer laugh at China and how their people are controlled. We are walking ourselves into our own version.

      Getting out of hand
      And bollocks to the “nothing to hide, nothing to fear” rhetoric you can be law abiding and still express privacy concerns because it is blatently clear companies aren’t held to account when peoples data is lost/leaked and its the very same ones that end up being tasked with running whatever the government cooks up

      Whats this doing exactly to stop young people accessing inappropriate content?
      Last I checked there was a story doing the rounds about them creating it using AI

      To think we used to mock the likes of China’s firewall, or the intranet thing NK does for their network (people have smuggled iphones out of there, its mad)

      I’m wondering why your average sharer of child sexual abuse imagery wouldn’t just zip those files with a password and send those zips.

      > When we asked for clarification on its plans, an Ofcom spokesperson said the agency is considering measures that automatically detect illegal content and content harmful to children called ‘hash matching.’ However, “the proposals do not recommend services break end-to-end encryption,” Ofcom said.

      Seems this will be a mess…
