@element@matrix ah! Element is a UK based company. What does it mean specifically for the users of Element if this Online Safety Bill becomes the law in UK?
Hmm.. so does this law only apply to end user apps and not to services that route e2e encrypted messages between those apps (or even to keyservers that facilitate the initial handshake)?
@adnan@matrix@element I dont think it will affect the protocol itself in a sense that Non-EU matrix homeservers should not be affected by this and third party clients for matrix that do not send telemetry anywhere shouldnt either.

I may be asking for legal advice 😄
