Starmer might be packing his bags, but the “Online Safety Act” is staying exactly where it is.

This isn’t about safety; it’s a government-mandated monopoly. Private firms help write the laws, then “win” the contracts to sell the solutions. While the PM resigns, the “vicious circle” of corporate surveillance just keeps grinding forward.
