Self hosting is quickly becoming the only safe option.

I really don't like the idea that a future police officer could be sifting through all my stuff without me knowing. At least with a search warrant you know they've been to your house.

These clauses added to the Bill yesterday grant powers for police to access any online account and the information within it, on approval of a senior officer, through a seized phone or device.

Any online account. So Instagram and TikTok, but also NHS accounts, banking apps, work accounts, they have carte blanche to just rifle through anything and everything that you've signed into? With no judicial warrant required.

America may be openly fascist now, but the UK isn't far behind.

And this is under a Labour government.

If you have any left wing leanings, vote Green in future, convince friends and family to vote Green.

Labour are authoritarian and the Lib-Dems will sell out any principles for a whiff of power. The Greens might have some shit candidates, but they at least support proportional representation and not starting a police state.

Guess UK is joining the USA in becoming a fascist police state.

So fucking scary how the world is turning into that book. Its like these fuckers read it as an owner's manual instead of what it was meant to be.
