@signalapp@mastodon.world And if they end up mandating that, orgs like you guys should start a rebellian against it, rather than pulling the service away for UK users.

@alexchapman@vee.seedy.cc > if they [UK govt] end up mandating [on-device scanning], orgs like you guys should start a rebellion against it This will be an acid test for @signalapp@mastodon.world, Wire, ChatMail apps like @delta@chaos.social, @matrix@mastodon.matrix.org apps, and @xmpp@fosstodon.org apps like @snikket_im@fosstodon.org. As well as app distributors like @fdroidorg@floss.social and @IzzyOnDroid@floss.social. *Especially* those headquartered in the UK, and subject to easy enforcement if they protect the people using their software/ service, instead of surveilling us on behalf of the UK govt.
