Privacy for all should be a goal—but the UK's Online Safety Bill would undermine privacy for everyone. It could also make the problem of child safety worse, not better. Tell the UK’s House of Lords to protect end-to-end encryption and privacy in the bill: https://act.eff.org/action/tell-the-uk-s-house-of-lords-protect-end-to-end-encryption-in-the-online-safety-bill-9245a4fd-8ae0-4e46-a90c-ad64f743837e

  Tell the UK’s House of Lords: Protect End-to-End Encryption in the Online Safety Bill
  
  from @eff
  
  The UK government has had years to revise its Online Safety Bill into a proposal that wouldn’t harm users’ basic rights. It has failed to do so. As drafted, the Bill undermines end-to-end encryption and would make UK businesses and individuals less safe online—including the very groups that the bill intends to protect. Proposals like this threaten a basic human right: our right to have a private conversation. We know that several members are on the fence about this issue. Please help by telling them to protect encryption.

    Private communication is a basic, universal right. In the online world, the best tool we have to defend this right is end-to-end encryption. End-to-end encryption ensures that governments, tech companies, social media platforms, and other groups cannot view or access our private messages, the...

  @eff Tell us how, Tell us why... I am so tired of being told how to vote instead of being treated like an adult and explained the situation and letting me figure out for myself.

    Concerning enough for human rights protection in the UK, we are worried that if the Online Safety Bill becomes law it could be used to justify other repressive internet regulations, already on the rise.
