> As a reminder, the Bill contains several far reaching proposals including some suggesting that Encryption should be weakened through various methods. This has generated much pushback from UK entities and the Internet Society has drafted an online letter to members of the UK Parliament, co-signed by dozens of organisations, that “End-to-End Encryption keeps us safe”. The joint statement will go live on Monday 14th June 2021 at 9am UK time on the Global Encryption Website and will also be printed in the 14 June edition of the House. > > The draft Bill is published at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/draft-online-safety-bill > > The repercussions of this Bill reach way further than just affecting the United Kingdom - this could be a blueprint for many other countries to follow - and the consequences could be terrible. Thus, since this is in draft form, it is important to pay attention now, as there is still time to suggest and design better solutions than the ones that will end up doing more harm than good. > > Thank you Oliver, Just to highlight, excellent session. Apart from the impact on encryption, was surprised about the extend this bill would organisations into scope. Seems quite a wide net they are casting and recommend community members that operate within the UK to take a good look and do an impact assessment. Thanks, MarcoH
