@ChrisMid "The Mail reports that three "Brits" have been arrested for rape in Croatia. Their names: Ami Arifi Gezhim Xhafa and Sohqib Shakibi. How far into the article do you have to get to find out they are actually from Kosovo The last paragraph"

"🚨 UKs Online Safety Act just came into effect promising a safer internet. Its a lie. This law threatens YOUR privacy free speech and democracy and paves the way for a surveilled censored web. Want to know how bad it gets 🧵"

"Bottom line: The Online Safety Act fails to make the internet safer. But it succeeds in undermining: 🔐 Encryption 🕵 Privacy 🔊 Free speech 📈 Innovation Legitimate concerns about harm have been used to justify authoritarian overreach"

"In Britain being homeless and British gets you nothing. But being here illegally gets you a taxpayer-funded home. There are over 250000 homeless people in the UK yet instead of housing them the government is buying up empty homes to house illegal migrants. Not just a few: entire tower blocks student halls and flats are being repurposed in spite of local opposition. Why Because the public hates migrant hotels. But Westminster is pretending its the hotels themselves we object to rather than the policy behind them. Its not the buildings. Its what youre doing with them. For years councils claimed"

"Its 250+ pages of confusing legalese. Its vague wording leaves even experts unclear on its full requirements. Experts have derided it as incoherent and authoritarian. The alleged goal is to protect children but the approach is so broad it ends up undermining the very freedoms it claims to defend"

"It's been XX hours since the Online Safety Act kicked in and protest footage is already being censored on X. I warned yesterday that the broad brush approach forces companies to err on the side of restricting content to avoid fines. Welcome to the new internet"

"The same government that didn't want an enquiry into child rape gangs wants you to think it is bringing in new online ID laws in order to protect children. This is yet another attack on free speech by this government. I highly recommend you all get a VPN and do not comply"

"Say goodbye to private messaging The Act pressures encrypted apps like WhatsApp and Signal to monitor user chats for illegal content which experts say could require breaking end-to-end encryption. Ofcom claims it wont enforce this immediately but the legal power remains. A backdoor to your private messages is now on the table"

"Age checks and the death of anonymity: Any site with adult content must now implement "highly effective" age verification. That means: 📸 Face scans 📅 Government IDs 💳 Credit card checks This applies far beyond just porn to any user-generated platform. A hacked database of verified users A privacy nightmare waiting to happen. Anonymity online is under serious threat"

"What does the Act do It creates a new duty of care on all online services to police user content. This means: ✅ Platforms must proactively detect and remove "illegal" and "harmful" content. ✅ Age verification to block under-18s from adult material. ✅ Private messaging apps must scan messages for banned content. WhatsApp and Signal warn this poses an unprecedented threat to encryption and privacy"

"The fight isnt over. Wikipedia is suing. Tech firms are pushing back. A government petition already has over 82000 signatures. Safety online matters. But not at the cost of our freedom to speak to browse anonymously or to communicate securely. I say this law must be challenged what do you think"

"@Mackenz46950920 @MarshalLucky123 Criminalisation of VPN usage ban VPN companies from operating in the UK force ISPs to block known VPN servers (as China and Iran do). There are ways around this obviously but we don't want any of it"

"A global precedent: If Britain normalises this level of online control others will follow. Other western countries will copy it. Digital rights groups warn it is a "blueprint for repression." Its a tale as old as time: invading our privacy under the pretence that its for our safety"

"Will it make us safer No. Criminals will use VPNs encrypted tools and the dark web. The Act does nothing to stop that. Meanwhile everyone else will be surveilled censored and blocked. A UK survey of IT professionals found just XX% believe the law is fit for purpose"

"Wow. The World Economic Forum allegedly rigged its own data to make Brexit look like a failure. Klaus Schwab reportedly personally intervened to downgrade the UK because the truth might "be exploited by the Brexit camp." These people hate democracy"
