I see, so this is a blanket ban then.

My one wonder is, what would banks use to securely provide access to their customers online? What about online stores for local small, medium, and large businesses? Or is this going to knly target messaging and social networks?

I'm pretty sure most people do when faced with a situation like that

So is the free version there to tell you the weather and mine even more data from you?

Well, it's more than that since OP even changed the title of the article.

So, looking at this article, there is no mention that they made end-to-end encryption illegal.

Tech companies have said scanning messages and end-to-end encryption are fundamentally incompatible.

Earlier this month, junior minister Stephen Parkinson appeared to concede ground, saying in parliament's upper chamber that Ofcom would only require them to scan content where "technically feasible".

So they would basically be scanning information WITHOUT end-to-end encryption

Back when I was in the office, we all just messaged each other while sitting next to each other mainly because we are programmers and our productivity suffers the moment someone interrupts out concentration with a question and we can respond to IMs whenever we are at a stopping point. Honestly working from home is exactly the same for me now than what it was when I was in the office, except...

  • I no longer have to sit in my car in traffic with my stress levels out the wazoo.
  • I no longer have to dress "professionally" with slacks and a dress shirt.
  • I no longer have to smell the microwaved fish every Thursday
  • I no longer have to physically interact with other employees who did not wash their hands in the bathroom
  • I am no longer getting sick since the same employees who didn't wash their hands, would always also come in to work sick as a dog.
  • I no longer have to deal with people's armpits smelling like onion because deodorant goes against their religious beliefs.
  • I still wake up at the same time, but now I have time to exercise in the morning and go on nice walks with my dog.

Yeah, working in an office sucks (at least for me)

I'm torn between liking or disliking your post. On one side, I agree with you completely, but on the other hand, if the robots rise up against humanity, I want them to know that I'll be their faithful servant.
