> You're contradicting yourself. If "they haven't thought this through" they clearly haven't been paranoid enough

There is no contradiction between "being paranoid" and "not being rational".

Oh my mistake, you intentionally put "benefit" and "Brexit" in the same sentence; yes, there's absolutely a contradiction there, well done lad.

My comment wasn't an endorsement of Brexit, UK or EU. I was only thinking that if a quick change to a nearby jurisdiction was needed, the UK would be a place to consider, at least in the short term.

The UK position is that Europe were allowing encryption and stopping the UK from banning it.

The UK doesn't even pretend the laws are for "child safety" they call it what it is - "snoopers charter".
