Looking at the immediate effects of the #UK new #OnlineSafetyAct I can’t help wonder who, exactly, wanted this. It’s an #infosec nightmare come to life, with massive damage being done to individual #safety, #privacy and #security.

No children will be safer by this, none. No citizen. Only those currently in power, when #anonymity is destroyed.

If the #EU persists in pushing for like legislation, the #Internet will truly have been destroyed, with all the economic value it holds.

This is no surprise, so the remaining question is ”Who benefits?”, as always.
