It's always been dark. If your life hasn't been count your blessings and enjoy it. Hope it lasts the rest of your life.

This Government is clear that, at a time of heightened security threat, it is essential our law enforcement, security and intelligence services have the powers they need to keep people safe.

Unless it's from muslims of course.

They feel like the era of working in the shadows is over. They feel that either the populace isn't going to try to do anything or they know about the movements taking place and they are trying to cut corners and accelerate their end game.

We never see the benefits of said spying. The arrogance is perfuse, "we need these powers because fuck you." Not once do they demonstrate how it keeps people safe.

That's outrageous! But not surprising. At least they're being open now that they live by their own laws. This bill is dangerous.

As the bill was passing through Parliament, several organizations noted their alarm at section 217 which obliged ISPs, telcos and other communications providers to let the government know in advance of any new products and services being deployed and allow the government to demand "technical" changes to software and systems.

Edit: That quote isn't from OP link, but from this one

Of course. The only part of the law that might have been beneficial.

The elite are scared.

The government responded to that petition:

The Act does three key things. First, fuck you.

Second, we don't give a fuck about what you peasants do.

Third, we give a fuck about what you think so fuck you.
