You maybe right about the authoritarian part, but I guarantee you they don’t know a thing about technology - evidenced by their unwillingness to listen to experts on matters like the Online Safety Act or on trying to outlaw e2ee. Starmer made Peter Kyle Secretary of State for Science, who said “For everyone thinking of using a VPN, verifying your age keeps a child safe … so let’s not try find a way around, just prove your age, make the internet safer for children.” Authoritarian certainly is an adjective to describe these people, but so also is clueless.
