Is there really any rational behind these laws? Somebody going home in the evening, thinking i made the world a better place? Or is it just there to replace the fading copyright violations as jurisdictions ammunition against every citizen. If you create laws that no one can follow because they try to fight physics and basic human nature, not taming it but erasing, than the state has given up on the fairness of law, for he or she who is called before the judge, is up to the officials selecting for punishment.<p>&quot;All are equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimination to equal protection of the law.&quot; Might still hold true, but if law selects - and that process is prone to go ungoverned, then Arbitrariness is whats left.<p>Better sit still citizen, coiffeur Damocles has a unsteady hand.

Theresa May and her team, even before she was in Number 10, consistently showed themselves to be at the same time extremely authoritarian and wilfully ignorant when it comes to technology. I&#x27;m worried about how far she&#x27;ll be able to go, given how useless the opposition are, between now and 2025.
