best case senario the British government is going to pay a private company to run this. That company will not have serious oversight. The company will keep offering to collect more and more data in the name of "efficiency". They will under invest in security and safety and make sure the tax payer is left to bail them ou for fixing problems caused by their lack of investment. Because that's how we do things in the UK.

@duckwhistle@mastodon.org.uk @edzilla@social.edzilla.info @underseamonkey@fosstodon.org @TimWardCam@c.im @jonpsp@mstdn.social @cfy@mas.to Don't forget that history suggests that the private company getting the business *and all the data* will likely be American and so not subject to GDPR.
