I've extracted quotes as this article is written in a "will someone think of the children moralfag sort of way"
The government has faced months of warnings related to the changes, due in future releases of Google's Chrome browser and Mozilla Firefox, but is yet to address them.
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have warned that the changes, despite being designed to protect users, would critically undermine tools used to block people from accessing abuse websites.
A spokesperson for the ISPA trade association which supports ISPs told Sky News: "Serious changes need to be made to [the new technology] for it to be even near fit for purpose in the UK.
"Until that happens the government needs to send a strong message to browsers such as Mozilla and Google that these changes cannot go ahead."
A government spokesperson said: "Whilst we look to support capabilities that seek to deliver security and privacy to the UK online, we are concerned about unintended consequences changes could have.
"We will work with industry and regulators to seek solutions to any potential problems as part of our ongoing work to make the UK the safest place in the world to be online."

oi m8 u got a loicense for that browser?

Oceania was always at war with Eurasia.

great british firewall when?

thats already been planned lad

wtf does this even mean? Can I get a cushy job where I just make vague statements and implement poorly thought-out decisions for the government? I'm sure I can come up with a few pointless and ineffective things.

Shh dont rock the boat.

Right now our govnment is happy just saying buzzwords instead of doing anything.
Every so often they say they are going to ban something from the internet on a certain date. And nothing happens.
It keeps parents happy who want to use the internet to babysit their kids.

just tell the parents to fuck off

They would just bitch and moan. Thats what parents do.

Where as if you say
They are too dumb to really question it.

Only if you (or more likely your parents) know people there and you've been politically 'cleared'. So if you're posting here that's an automatic failure on the second point. Hi MI5, how's it going?

THEY CAN TAKE OUR LIVES THEY WILL NEVER TAKE OUR FREEDOM

But "they" already have taken your freedom… and you're not doing shit about it…

I thought Mozilla sold out to Soros already? I can't stand their new browsers, too full of telemetry crap in about:config, but I do use an older version with good privacy/security addons.

Does the UK government still not know about the existence of stuff like I2P, Tor or even VPN services – all which could be used to spoof IPs and share this software? If you don't have a VPN and Tor by now backed up on some disc and/or flashdrive you must be out of your mind.

Keep the savages in the dark about 'em.

They did. Its interesting that mozilla are irredeemable SJWs owned by dystopian billionaires yet even they are managing to foil our evil dystopinan SJW government.

Opera has a built in proxy. If the UK ever decide to implement the blocks on porn and other content they have been talking about for the last 5 years, people can just click a button to bypass it.

Knock knock
Your IP has indicated that someone in yor house is using an illegal browser.

Rubber glove gos on

Be aware free VPN services typically log and sell off data to third parties, thats how they maintain the cost of providing their "free" services. These third parties that buy up user data cannot be trusted to keep your data secret from the government. Look for cheaper VPN services with "no log" policies that also allow you to encrypt DNS and/or pin your IP to 127.0.0.1, or you could use a private VPN and then re-route through Tor making it even more difficult to track and trace.

For some reason, done by private business and right wing parties.

…or its just they that are shitty.

Unless you are standing on the corpses of hundreds of government agents or politicians, you are all talk.
