Britische Regierung will WhatsApp & Co. vorerst nicht zur Chatkontrolle zwingen
London will IT-Anbieter nicht zwingen, Inhalte in deren Plattformen zu kontrollieren, wenn das nicht möglich ist. Das könnte die Verschlüsselung retten.

“Donelan’s demands that tech companies cut off access to their tools for under-13s are the equivalent of the misguided practice of abstinence-only teaching in sex education classes at school: you can pretend kids aren’t doing it, but they will anyway.”

"Donelan’s demands that tech companies cut off access to their tools for under-13s are the equivalent of the misguided practice of abstinence-only teaching in sex education classes at school: you can pretend kids aren’t doing it, but they will anyway.
..the tack Donelan is taking promises a bad outcome for everyone: the platforms will see no evil, children will speak no evil, and so parents will hear no evil"

https://www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/omnishambles-over-encrypted-messages-continues/
It's a total fiasco, and the position is far from clear.

The government knows and has admitted it cannot scan messages without undermining or breaking encryption, but wants to pretend otherwise. It is playing us for fools. #onlinesafetybill #encryption #e2ee

It’s been a confusing week for those of us trying to understand what the UK Government is doing with its plans to break end-to-end encryption.

"#ClientSideScanning of encrypted messages is dangerous and impractical and opens the door to ever-greater snooping. It should never have been suggested".

Michelle Donelan, MP (with the Home Office in addition to DSIT) "said further work to develop the technology was needed but added that government-funded research had shown it was possible. This, incidentally is entirely untrue: their researchers were at pains to explain that the technology is unfit for purpose:"

Would UK courts have punished messaging companies for not using non-existent technology?
If not, what has changed?

@JamesBaker of @openrightsgroup writes "At the eleventh hour of the Online Safety Bill’s passage through Parliament, the Government has found itself claiming to have both conceded that it won’t do anything stupid and that it may well press ahead if it wants to. It is in a total mess over its proposals to break end-to-end encryption and scan our private messages.."

UK drops 'spy clause' for scanning encrypted chat, admits it's not 'feasible' - but don't celebrate yet ... it has simply kicked the online safety can down the road, Westminster style https://go.theregister.com/feed/www.theregister.com/2023/09/07/uk_government_clause_online_safety_bill/ #surveillance #UKOnlineSafetyBill #OnlineSafetyBill

UPDATE: the UK hasn't backed down from the #OnlineSafetyBill's requirements, saying that "If there was a situation where the mitigations that the social media providers are taking are not enough, and if after further work with the regulator they still can't demonstrate that they can meet the requirements within the bill, then the conversation about technology around encryption takes place."

The UK government will concede it will not use controversial powers in the #onlinesafetybill to scan messaging apps for harmful content until it is "technically feasible" to do so, postponing measures that critics say threaten users' #privacy. Financial Times
