In the UK the Online Safety Act was apparently designed to protect children, so far it is just being used to curtail online speech.

This video explains well the probable intent of the bill which was concocted by a Conservative Government and is being enforced by a Labour Government.

Britain seems to have a knack for that, a tradition that has been alive and kicking (users off of the internet) for years.

I agree with what this guy's saying, but why are his production values so awful? This makes the video unpleasant to watch and hence compromises the message he's delivering. He's hardly the only one saying this, so not like it's this or nothing.

If you compare this video with the first ones in November 2018, you'll see that the video quality has dropped significantly. Why is this one at only 1280x720 at 17fps? 17fps! Looks like garbage, frankly and no excuse for this in 2025 with 4K60 easily possible from an iPhone or similar and YouTube able to broadcast that resolution routinely.

Definitely not subbing this channel and will dismiss it as uninterested if it crops up in my recommendations.

He is obviously not tech savvy, you can see that by the way he ends all his videos, they just END. He has also mentioned that he does not edit any, they are raw.

This arrest list is disgraceful, so UK is double Belarus in second place and nearly 4 times Germany in 3rd and our media has the cheek to quote China and Russia as authoritarian states.
