Unhappy with being the most authoritarian and invasive government in history, the British government now wants to see what you like in the bedroom. How reassuring!. On the upside, I can’t be raped at my keyboard because these perverts will be sitting on my shoulder like Blackbeard’s parrot. Funny how I don’t feel any safer, just abused and invaded. Worse, there are moves afoot to ban virtual private networks. Eliminating privacy and personal security online, entirely. A line of thought, which was first postulated by David Cameron.
The UK is passing laws to ensure that British citizens need to tell authorities that they watch pornography. You could not make it up. It is all contained in some of the most botched and ill advised legislation in history. The UK Digital Economy Act. A catalogue of incompetence. What more could we expect from this democratically illegitimate government that has decided that their 650 votes, are more important than tens of millions. Designed, apparently, by those with absolutely no idea what they are talking about, it is soon to be law. This is an unprecedented invasion of privacy and a means of control akin to the EU Articles 11 and 13. Though, not quite so economically damaging, it is far more invasive.
It is ok though!. Apparently, you can pop along to your local post office and let them know, you love it. With so many local post offices being shut down and far reduced high street presence of post offices anywhere, this could be a day trip!. Bring the family! A day out for all to treasure, as you register your interest in pornography. How wonderful, especially if you buy the kids some fish and chip and cotton candy on the way. One for the family photo album. Now imagine you are from a community where this is absolutely prohibited?, real persecution. Good luck with having any future aspirations of success in the UK.
Wait… it gets better. These regulations are being enforced and maintained, not by government, but by private businesses. So your data could be sold to anyone. Let us say, I am against you in a local election. I will buy your data and publish it via a ‘leak”. This is institutionalising leaks like the Ashley Madison leak.
If it does one thing, it is to hi-light that the government is utterly, utterly incompetent and unfit to be in office.
Yet, it doesn’t stop there, this insane half baked legislation gets better. Making illegal copies of something, could see you in jail for 10 YEARS!. Just to put that into context. The worst paedophile, in UK history, a leader of a grooming gang that raped, abused, violently assaulted and prostituted children, served just over 5 years of his 25 years sentence, despite a supposed absolute minimum jail term of 14 years. He was then released by someone.. without hearing, ultra vires, somehow…. But that is pedo island for you.
Looking at figures for the UK. You are all at it!. Pornhub alone gets something like 65 million views……………. A DAY! Admittedly, not just from the UK but this ONE site, would seem to indicate that, nearly everyone is watching. And that is just ONE site.
Humour aside. This is far, far more insidious. This is, as always, about power. The establishment, now has all they need to discredit any contenders for opposition. They may know, more about you, than your own family. Gay? LGBT? and didn’t come out yet? Don’t even bother running for office. They can leak that, way before you ever wanted your family, friends or colleagues to know. Becoming a threat as leader of a new non monopoly party? Forget it. They will leak stuff about you which may not even exist, claiming that it is real, through BBC or Sky ”fake news”, and everyone knows that they know everything, so who can say what is real and what is not?. This is precisely the point. Control. The move towards a post democratic era. A microcosm of the entire purpose of the EU. Theresa May isnt ”mentally ill’ as many people believe. She is doing her job. It just isn’t the job that UK voters thought that they elected her for.
This information is extremely powerful. It is bad enough that the EU are about to put a China style great wall around EU countries to control the media. This goes even further. This is red alert, alarm bells ringing, klaxons going off, those spiny red lights everywhere level worrying.
If you tolerate this, forget democracy, because it will not stop there. It should never have got here in the first place. Once they are with you in the bedroom, they will dictate what you do in every aspect of your life. Even religion (Islam aside) was never this totalitarian.
