Many proponents of the U.K. bill have pointed to addressing the issue of illegal or harmful online content, but some critics say the legislation could undermine user privacy.

the then version of the bill “pose[d] a serious threat” surrounding"surveillance, identity theft, fraud, and data breaches”.in a Sept. 20 X post that the encrypted messaging app could leave the U.K. if the firm were “forced to build a backdoor” under the Online Safety Bill guidelines. Her statement followed the final consideration of amendments in Parliament, in which lawmakers did not specify protections for such encrypted services.
