Callout to anyone in #leasehold flats struggling to get #FibreOptic #FTTP #broadband installed. Are you a residents association? Would you be willing to share your experience? What barriers did you face? Would @OpenReach talk to you? #ProjectGigabit @ispreview.bsky.social @cathnlc.bsky.social

If Ofcom did decide to ban the social media platform X, how would such a ban work? Some thoughts drawn from Internet history... iptegrity.com/online-safet... @fipr-policy.bsky.social

#Ofcom released today of 1527 pages of regulatory guidance, Codes of Practice, consultations on the UK #OnlineSafetyAct. #Socialmedia providers to be ready by March 2025, but there are some significant hurdles. #humanrights #privacy #freedomofexpression #e2ee THREAD 🧵 /1

The Westminster honey trap and the #OnlineSafetyAct: the curious incident of a cybercrime attack perpetrated on a dating app where the victim was a former MP. In this blog post, I consider how Act applies and how it tackles the sharing of intimate images online. iptegrity.com/online-safet...
