    I hope this encourages more companies/sites to fight back against stupid laws. If most keep complying, it’ll only get worse for them in the future when they make even worse laws.

    Pull out all UK servers and ignore uk fines (assuming thats legal wherever u reside… idk how that works) or just pull out of uk.

    I hope a country like switzerland or something lets companies host servers there for europe without enforcing dumb laws from uk/european union.

      The EU wants to go after encryption. By introducing means to be able to see messages in services before they are encrypted and sent. Law is currently being discussed.

      Basically:

      “Trust us bro, we will have the means to read your stuff but we promise to never read them or abuse it. Trust us.”
