Powers in the UK Online Safety Act to introduce message scanning technology is far from an online safety measure. It's a gift to predators and stalkers❗

Forcing a backdoor into encrypted systems so everything we send can be scanned makes us vulnerable to anybody who wants to exploit that weakness.

Message scanning powers are sleeping on the statute book. They must never get activated.

The UK government has already tried to make Apple put a backdoor in its encrypted services. It's clear they want to recklessly dismantle our cybersecurity protections.

We must save encryption to #PracticeSafeText 💬
