Cyber Security guy. Many past lives.
This article isn’t remotely serious. It’s certainly not analysis either.
It reads like nostalgia served up for “the sensible centre” to make them feel warm and fuzzy.

Surely the City can come up with something more interesting to keep trying to attack me with?

UK’s Online Safety Act is putting YOUR privacy at risk. Uploading ID or scanning your face to access gaming or messaging? It won’t stop harm - it creates new risks of identity theft, surveillance & weaker encryption. @eff.org + @openrightsgroup.bsky.social need to keep holding UK gov accountable.
