Looks like there is a growing market for programs that make emails anonymous and run browsers from a proxy address.
It’s technology and there is always a countermeasure. Brits shouldn’t have to put up with it, but they probably will.
Some will just pay for more privacy, until the government makes encryption and other evasive measures illegal.
Isn’t it the case here in the USA that all companies providing encryption software are required by law to provide a key to law enforcement agencies? I seem to recall reading that at some point. If true, I would imagine that encryption would still be quite useful for protection from industrial espionage, but it seems of limited use against Government snooping.
