Here we go again. Uk government issues a new order for Apple to decrypt data it can’t decrypt by design. Why the fuck is our government so determined to fuck up everything fucking thing it touches? Locking pensioners up for holding bits of cardboard. Digital id cards. Porn licenses. Websites blocking the uk rather than comply with stupid rules. No wonder Starmer’s the least popular PM in history (and we had Liz Truss as PM)

The EU Council is again pushing “Chat Control,” a proposal to scan all private messages—even those protected by end-to-end encryption. 🔍

If passed, providers like Signal may exit the EU. 📵
Client-side scanning = mass surveillance. 🕵️
Privacy for journalists, activists, and everyday users is at serious risk. 🛡️

@kelbot I'll also call out #UUCP. It was one of the last 2 large-scale asynchronous communication methods we had (the last being email, which still survives in that form). Could talk over anything. #NNCP is a worthy successor and, while it doesn't do modems, it does do #encryption and USB drives.
