The Online Safety Bill (UK) will bring in client-side scanning, a tech for moderating content on encrypted services. Apps will have to compromise encryption to scan your message, putting a spy in your pocket.

Big Brother Watch (@BigBrotherWatch): "👁️The #OnlineSafetyBill "could lead to the implementation of government-mandated mass surveillance applications on every UK smartphone."

The U.K. Government Is Very Close To Eroding Encryption Worldwide | Electronic Frontier Foundation –
The U.K. Parliament is pushing ahead with a sprawling internet regulation bill that will, among other things, undermine the privacy of people around the world. The Online Safety Bill, now at the final stage before passage in the House of Lords, gives the British government the ability to force backdoors into messaging services, which will destroy end-to-end encryption. No amendments have been accepted that would mitigate the bill’s most dangerous elements.

💉 Online Safety Act: The truth behind one of UK’s most authoritarian pieces of legislation yet
The Online Safety Act, which originated in 2017 after the death of 14-year-old Molly Russell, has evolved to include provisions which introduce a new criminal offence for “knowingly sending false information” that causes harm and criminalising sending “seriously threatening messages” online.

UK Tribunal Blocks Secret Gov’t Case Against Apple Encryption
A government that demands invisibility in court is one step away from disappearing accountability altogether.
With a necessary reality check, a #UK tribunal has told the government that, no, it cannot hold a secret legal battle against #Apple over #encryption. The Investigatory Powers Tribunal (#IPT), the body meant to oversee the country’s surveillance powers, has dismissed efforts by the Home Office to keep the entire case hidden from public view. And in doing so, it has delivered a quietly important win for press freedom and digital rights. Although, things are far from over.
