BREAKING: 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.
Absolutely fucking insane that they are just pretending the third Muslim victim doesn’t exist. They are clearly terrified of their complete failure to control the narrative and the shit they are willing to do to regain control just mindblowing.
How the world works in a nutshell: giant corporations profit from an illegal war whilst the governments who wage them tell the rest of us to tighten our belts.
Facial recognition isn’t the end point, it’s the infrastructure.
Let me explain.
Step 1: introduce the technology for a “reasonable” purpose
crime prevention
public safety
efficiency
Step 2: normalise it
“law abiding citizens have nothing to fear”
only used in limited cases, nothing to worry about
Step 3: expand its use
more locations
more databases
more integration with other systems
Step 4: connect it
ID systems
Digital banking Currency
Travel
online access
public services
Step 5: enforce through it
access granted or denied
movement tracked
behaviour monitored
By that point, it’s no longer optional, that’s how digital control systems are built through layers.
Once the infrastructure exists, it rarely stays limited.
What it’s used for today is what it makes possible tomorrow.
