Every day we get closer to an Orwellian society. The United Kingdom may already be one.

For the age verification is it possible to sign a petition? I think is not too late to join forces… or anything but not letting them go further.. as of the chat control probably only contacting the representatives. I really hope lawyers and businessmen try to fight it…

Have you already written to your members of parliament about chat control, and possibly other matters? Seriously, do it. There is very little you can do, but this might actually help. Slightly. Maybe.

The UK is owned by a different country. That country is Italy, where the Roman Catholic Church resides. Any Catholic-owned platform will shut down anything that goes against the RCC, or at best, they'll just minimize the reach for those who have some things to say against the Jesuits and Catholic leadership.

That's from what my producer, Neigsendoig, researched.

I feel like at least in Germany privacy matters are alive and kicking thanks to GDPR / DSGVO
