Posted February 21Feb 21 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgj54eq4vejo Not been a fan of much this Gov has done and this might be the worst yet. Putting everybodies security at risk and allowing backdoors. The invasion of personal freedoms continue and this hasn’t gone down well with the US who are now reluctant to share sensitive info with the UK. Privacy is a thing of the past at this moment in time.
February 21Feb 21 Hand in hand with the idiotic Online Safety Bill, as ever, the UK government doesn't understand how to regulate and control the internet. I hope this one is withdrawn, the general pattern with our tech restriction bills is that they run up against the technical requirements of implementing it and then get quietly dropped but this might get through.
February 22Feb 22 The US are sharing sensitive personal information with the richest unelected man in the world. They are in no position to moan about data security. Just saying....

Elon Musk having access to Americans social security numbers isn’t quite the same as putting UK devices under threat of being compromised by hackers/China whoever. It’s actually a genuinely crazy stance the UK has taken and if our supposed powers are this technological illiterate then we are in big trouble. Not to mention it’s just more akin to a totalitarian state, do UK citizens privacy not matter? What are we doing here
February 24Feb 24 Elon Musk having access to Americans social security numbers isn’t quite the same as putting UK devices under threat of being compromised by hackers/China whoever. It’s actually a genuinely crazy stance the UK has taken and if our supposed powers are this technological illiterate then we are in big trouble. Not to mention it’s just more akin to a totalitarian state, do UK citizens privacy not matter? What are we doing here its not just social security numbers. its tax details, health details, X details, tesla car buyer details, government worker details and he is busy collaborating with fascist-leaning groups across Europe and America and his billionaire Tech bros are arm in arm, so it would be wise to consider they are all sharing stuff, God knows the Steele Dossier showed Trump was in it with Putin years back, Johnson did his best ti gloss over Putin cash influencing British politicians and Brexit, notably Farage and his crew, fresh off a hard-on boner cos his fascist-leaning hero actually mentioned him by name. Nothing much complimentary, but at least he and Truss mutual fanboy worship of Trump has produced something concrete the batshit nutters are desperate for, as opposed to actually doing the jobs they were elected to do. BTW, my long-term is a major Tory volunteer, and asked me for my opinion on Truss as she was about to be elected (not by the general public) PM. I said she's a total moron, a nutjob, no idea what she's doing, at least Sunak is sane. I'm saving my "I Told You So" for a special occasion as it's blatantly not needed currently. And it was a useful lesson for me, that relatively intelligent people who you'd think would be able to assess people's ability and suitability in a fairly logical rational way are in fact just as random as nutty fanatics and make emotional choices based on preconceived conceptions and grudges. But feel free to ignore inconvenient facts to support your bias. We are not a totalitarian state and most of the private companies and every online tom dick & harry are selling your personal details to all and sundry already. I know this is a fact courtesy of the lying bast*rds who ring my phone everyday from India and try to con me out of money, having managed to get money out of my late dad with fraudulent IT bollocks and lies and blocking laptops demanding ransom money. I told/tell them to f*** Off and bought a new one. Now THAT is a global problem that needs sorting as older people get targeted and nobody seems to give a toss. If one doesn't already think one's personal choices and info on you arent being shared already every time one logs on and browses Youtube, post on X or anywhere else, one might be interested in some guaranteed Get-rich-scheme I have, just send me 250 pounds and I will send out the details.....
February 24Feb 24 Yeah there's really no such thing as privacy anymore and hasn't been for donkey's years.
