@nano@yiff.life @matoakit@beach.city dunno. itll probably kinda suck anyway if they enforce like. age checking stuff (finally doing porn id stuff? and checking age before signing up for social media) some of it seems okay though. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/a-guide-to-the-online-safety-bill#a-guide-to-the-online-safety-bill

@sammy@cherrykitten.gay @nano@yiff.life @matoakit@beach.city the technology for scanning encrypted content without breaking encryption will never exist so it will never be enforced. lol

@Sqaaakoi @nano could they even enforce that on a federated chat protocol like matrix or xmpp, good luck going after the furry hosting a 5 person matrix home server in fuckin new orleans or some shit

@nano @j0 @matoakit Don't be ridiculous. You'll have to verify your identity to so much as connect to the internet, none of this "Wait till they get to Twitter" nonsense.
