Comment on UK Expands Online Safety Act to Mandate Preemptive Scanningparent

Comments

Letting tech companies self-regulate has failed, and too many people leave morality at the door when engaging online, something which doesn't happen at scale IRL.

I completely agree with this point.

We also have some tech companies (X) openly hostile to the UK Government. At what point does a sovereign country say "you're harming the people here and refuse to change, you're blocked".

Well, X seems to only be “hostile” in the sense that it airs the uncomfortable truths that the UK would rather not have heard.
