The UK is drafting a law to scan every photo, video and message on every phone in the UK

If tweet fails to load, click here. The UK is drafting a law to scan every photo, video and message on every phone in the country.
Tech CEOs who refuse to implement this could face up to 5 years in prison.
The proposal would force companies to build device level scanners that inspect content before encryption.
That means:
• Every image scanned
• Every message inspected
• Every video analyzed
All directly on your phone.
Governments and companies pushing these safety” systems already have a terrible track record protecting user data.
Last month, Europe’s new age verification app, promoted as a way to "keep children safe," was hacked in under 2 minutes.
In another case, over 70,000 IDs and selfies linked to online verification systems were exposed in a major breach.
Now the UK wants even deeper access directly inside your device.
Once governments force surveillance tools into every phone, they can expand what gets monitored at any time.

And how do they plan on doing that?
They planning on sending the unarmed HOA level cops here to the US to arrest the heads of social media companies?
Absolutely amazing this is the response to a citizen of Ireland nearly getting his head cut off.

The UK is 15 to 20 years ahead of American Democratic Socialist Party. But that time line may be shrinking faster than we all think.

Information control is a key tool of the despot.

Ya, I'd like to see Two Tier Kier try and arrest Musk.

that most likely means they are alreadydoing, but now they are making it a law so they can "legally" do it. doesnt matter either way, not like some joe schmoe off the street can sue and win a case against them anyway.

Big Brother on the prowl. It’s coming here. Just like with FISA, both sides want it because they believe it will be their side that employs AI to dominate their opposition. Authoritarian government any way you cut it.

Sounds like it's time for the King to dissolve parliament and call for new elections.
I know the Tories were pretty useless for the 15 or so years that they were in power, but they'd still be a better option than these Labour Party fascists.

A government that needs to spy on it’s own people is a government that knows it doesn’t possess the trust of it’s own people.

Will videos of honor killings and beheadings be considered acceptable and protected by the British monarchy?

This would lead to every responsible company staying out of the UK market. The uk would then become a vassal of china
Posted on 6/11/26 at 9:51 am to Placekicker
I think it’s time for these companies to just say no and announce that they will no longer do business in the UK. Just cut the UK off from the internet if necessary.
