Why are we talking about the EU in this thread? I don't see how draconian UK laws relate to a proposed chat control law in the EU that hasn't even been drafted and would likely not survive a judicial challenge if it were to be approved.
This is not about the EU, and it's also not about chat control, or encryption.
The only connection I see is "I don't like UK Internet policy"
Well, it relates in that the UK also hates encryption and is extremely likely to get their own Chat Control anytime this decade.
The same could be said for the US as well though looking at the EARN IT Act that is reintroduced every couple of years just like Chat Control in the EU with both having failed multiple times so far.
The UK allready has its own Chat Control-ish though in:
