Write to your MP to help stop the Online Safety Bill

UK's Online Safety Bill returns to Parliament on 5th December. Now is the time to act; write your MP.

❌ Private chat platforms, such as WhatsApp, Signal, Facebook Messenger and Telegram, will also fall under the bill’s mandate.

❌ Under a recent amendment to the bill, they will have to scan for government-specified forms of illegal content using Home Office-approved systems. It is a deeply intrusive form of surveillance that will compromise the end-to-end encryption that currently keeps our chats confidential and secure.

❌ Automated censorship machines will decide what you can and can’t say online. They will use prior constraint, censoring you automatically before you have even published your comments.

❌ Politicians will decide what will be censored. Russia and China do the same. We need to be better than that, we need to uphold our values and freedoms.

❌ Downgrading anonymous accounts will punish victims of crime, as they will be marginalised and blocked.

❌ This Bill will age-gate and restrict access to the likes of Twitter, Google, and Reddit.
