@signalapp@mastodon.world They’re giving in to populism, and the government isn’t listening to the experts. The police in the UK is already untrustworthy. What happens when they start arresting people for false positives?

    @david@social.piconet.work @signalapp@mastodon.world It’s gonna be like the Horizon scandal all over again where they maliciously prosecute innocent people to cover it up.

    @david@social.piconet.work @signalapp@mastodon.world I think that's kinda the point, plausible deniability for when they arrest people they don't like

    @david@social.piconet.work @signalapp@mastodon.world Start arresting people for false positives? The police in the UK have been doing that for a very long time. As one example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sus_law

    @david@social.piconet.work @signalapp@mastodon.world the police are untrustworthy was all you needed to say. I don't trust police in my home country of the UK, here in Japan, anywhere. My number 1 choice is not to interact with them at all.
