Can you elaborate on signal? They have a open source codebase without any back door?!

Yes you’re correct. Signal would have to be forced to make a back door for the UK gov under this proposal. This is why they, with several others, are threatening to stop providing services in the UK should this pass.

Didn’t they say they’d leave the UK if the new proposals are accepted?
