The U.K. Parliament has passed the Online Safety Bill (OSB), which says it will make the U.K. “the safest place” in the world to be online. In reality, the OSB will lead to a much more censored, locked-down internet for British users. The bill could empower the government to undermine not just the privacy and security of U.K. residents, but internet users worldwide.

If, for example, Signal pulls of of their market, how can you force people not to use it? Signal never had office or any legal representation in my country and I’m using it?

What does that mean “pull of of their market” for some app you can download and use as you wish?

Easiest way is prevent download of the app from the App Store based on your region especially on iOS that is hard to get around.
