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

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.

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.

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.

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?

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

It already exists.

Aditionally. "Developer of an app". So you can still develop end-to-end encryption. Even task it for communications. But best make sure it's a program, just to be safe.

In America encryption is free speech. That “muh loicence for encryption munitions” bullshit was defeated in 1990s and thankfully this American standard of freedom was pushed on the rest of the world as the technical necessity because everyone else were techlets. But it looks like retarded elites really want their dumb ideas back. And hmm yes I definitely want to take Russian retardation as the normal way to do things.

in todays world of shit, the act of "developing" never stops, nothing is ever finished, finalized, completed. there is always one more pending update, if not simply for the sake of ticking an invisible box to comply with irrelevant rules set up by the app store you are publishing in - just to prevent it from being delisted.

I think I've spotted where you're going wrong.

Starting to demonstrate a lack of technical understanding rivalling the idiot that decided the legislation was plausible without adding the words "selling point end-to-end encryption which would make it more difficult for uk security"
Because everything that uses security cannot be disallowed. It only impacts that which specifically markets to evade law enforcement...

Their "common"wealth, whose entire purpose was to ship stolen gold to the British island imploded. Their piracy business - pardon me, freebooter business - is also long gone.
Now the Brits actually have to work for their wealth themselves since they can't just steal it from other nations who HAVE actually worked for it. They even kicked out the Polish who harvested their fields for practically free. So they have to do their own dirty work, too.

The brits are now completely buttdevastated and don't know what to do. Someone has to blamed for this. What does a retarded person do when they're super mad? They make even more retarded decisions than usual. This is what we see.

lmao you must be jewish, considering it was Sam Roth v. The People of the United States i.e. a case where jewish pornographers with a team of jewish lawyers argued in Supreme Court that hardcore interracial porn is achsually "speech" and thus covered by 1st Amendment and because the judge was a fellow freemason, the jews won this ridiculous argument and porn has been legal in USA ever since

anyway with this little context that your tribesmen have indeed made this comparison before, it doesnt make it less ridiculous
having some stasi scan your personal messaging for signs of antisemitism is absolutely a different thing than screening your luggage for drugs LMAO

i swear its this zoomer generation ruining everything i mean sure it was the gen X that did it to them but they were born into this world where privacy is just "dont worry about it goy" and they're just fully going along with it I fucking hate that shit

We have still all sorts of privacy laws like you cant search mail without warrant nor tap phones without warrant and probable cause ongoing investigation but now just kikes are supposed to be allowed to mass scan everyones communications no questions asked like what the actual FUCK the kikes are trying to make the world into USSR, AGAIN

considering that sweden for example is the exact opposite they fucked up the migration issue hard to the point their country got destroyed like im not exaggerating it got fucked up there is a bombing and a shooting on average each day now, its insane
but sweden did good on the free speech, like piratebay was based there for a long time and it was the birthplace of the pirate party (remember that?) so i kinda assumed denmark would be at least somewhat similar but a VPN ban for piracy purposes? thats quite a hardline stance

most of them used to apply not long ago in fact some of the national security powers have been expanded here only very recently
in USA of course it was the 9/11 and patriot act that destroyed privacy from govt for them

that's my point though that privacy used to be a thing a very cherished thing before and not assailable for any reason "national security" or otherwise and now people just roll with it as if its normal to have it violated
people have somehow become such cucks, such NPCs

like for national security you could just remove the people who cause those issues instead of searching your own kin your own brothers like you dont trust them
