Below comment is for the people who say “If you got nothing to fear, you got nothing to hide”.
Can you post your firstname/lastname/bank account number/sort code/date of birth/your kindergarten teacher name/city where your parents met/the company where you worked your first job? After all you have nothing to hide!
I know you should never assume anything… But I assume MPs communications will of course be exempt from any legislation on the grounds of national security? Not that it’ll prevent them from using their gmail accounts to send around sensitive information.
Would be kinda ironic it someone like Braverman got caught out – again – due to an “unofficial” account.
MPs use EE2E though, for good reason too. Yes, some people use it to commit or facilitate crime, however the vast majority of people use it because a secure way of communicating is just safer for sharing sensitive information. Not everyone is hiding something dangerous, most are just keeping themselves to themselves. That is hardly a crime.
An online safety bill should be more about cracking down on scammers than pensioners venting about politicians and today’s politics.
