NEW: Under UK Legislation anyone developing end-to-end encryption is now labelled as a “hostile actor”

https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2019/3/schedule/3
Schedule 3 applies to entries at the border.
The United States, Australia, Canada etc all have the same powers and do the same thing

You might wanna delete this thread

And to whom does this apply?
>>
>>107586840
It applies to entries at the border, as set out in Part 1 of Schedule 3 which you still appear to have not read.
If you have a concern about this, then don't visit the UK.
This is no different to bringing porn to Bali, animals to Australia or drugs to the US.
Funnily enough, when you visit another country, you have to obey their laws.

>whose selling point is end-to-end encryption

how do they know that? Signal's selling point is that it is a messaging app. end-to-end encryption is just a plus.

Furthermore, you omitted the next section that this is for the purposes of questioning by an officer if a person is intentionally acting in the interest of a hostile power, or if they are actually innocent and the connection is coincidental.

But you're just a FUD spreading shill trying to sow discord.

I did and the wording is dubious. In the context of other attacks on e2ee like chatcontrol et al, see >>107579049 I'm suspicious, not because I'm defending criminal behaviour but normal human behaviour, like talking to friends and family without big brother looking over my shoulder.
>>
>>107586962
It's fine to be suspicious, I'm not a fan of this report either, but stating straight lies like:
>Under UK Legislation anyone developing end-to-end encryption is now labelled as a “hostile actor”
does not advance discourse in any meaningful way

they don't care about actual issues you braindead fucking retard
they want to be the first government in human history that has the capability of monitoring its citizens in ways previously unable to be envisioned, and use these monitoring capabilities in conjunction with behavioral science learnings in order to prevent any possibility of domestic strife that would disrupt the continuation of the existing order.

hostile activity != hostile actor.

>>107586840
if i'm interpreting this right, it means any programmer using encryption to secure communications of UK citizens should automatically be seen as someone giving a leg-up to an imaginary foreign state.

Yes, more war, that will solve the problem! All governments worldwide are pushing totalitarian technocracy through digital ID, CBDCs, increased surveillance and biometric verification etc. Following China's footsteps by the divine decree of the WEF, the World Bank - the EU, many states in the US now, Russia, and Ukraine even, Africa, South Ameriaca, Asia are upscaling this digital infrastructure.

The elites are running this, not everyday people. Speaking of everyday people, there was a major protest in London a few days ago but it's been deboosted on twitter and it's completely memoryholed by the msm.

Take a look at this short clip compilation.

I never will understand why the British have such a tendency towards authoritarian measures when regarding the most pointless of things.

It's fascinating that "muh scary dystopian social credit system" isn't even really a real thing in China but burgers want to make it real anyway.

No it represents however many people among the majority who voted for the party in charge, plus some sort of from said coalition if needed. In theory it SHOULD represent over 50% of the population, but given fickleness it's more like 30% on a good day.
But what's your point? I'm just musing about how the UK picks the weirdest shit to get all authoritarian about.

Bongs have been voting against the socialist agenda since the Windrush generation, but as soon as their conservatives get in office, they keep pushing it forward anyways, sometimes harder than the open socialists like with the Boriswave. Fool me once, shame on me, but they've been fooled like a dozen times in a row at this point.

>>107589021
It's not just fickleness, their FPTP electoral system means a party can still win the majority of seats with a minority of votes.

I would like to continue on a past thread and explain why the UK does not exist anymore: you can see the source material here https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/107499607/#107501544 but in short: The UK no longer exist as they have no global power and their ruling class has as much brain power as crabs. Furthermore, there are crabs that do rule islands in the pacific, so the logic of "an island ruled by crabs is a country" is false. Why do we not call these islands as separate countries? is any island ruled by a crab, or a group of crabs a country?
Yes, in the past the UK did exist, but now it is all just boogeyman shit from a bygone era. No crab will come and enforce the UK law to your house, do not be afraid.
Thus, any attempts on the behalf of the crabs to stop development of encryption are useless - can a crab even comprehend what "encryption" is?

>>107589021
For reference, the leading party was voted for by only 7% of the population. The majority coalition by only 19%.

and no, i am not going to once again argue with crabs whether the country exist or not. THE UK DOES NOT EXIST. end of the question. If you look like pic related, i will not even respond to you. Post a selfie when responding to me so I know I am not arguing with crabs.

in every country there are limitations in that field.
in Russia for example you need a license for certain types of encryption algorithms
