Let’s all take a moment to consider that if — as demanded by Ofcom — encrypted messenger systems WERE actually monitoring conversations for words like: drone, bomb, explosive… all reports would currently be swamped

I don’t know about you but I have several WhatsApp and Signal chats which are currently burning with discussion of how war has changed and what battle risks are inherent in new technology.

Should that all be censored in pursuit of keeping us safe from terrorists?

@alecm We have a project funded by the MoD to build a prototype drone (i.e. a toy helicopter with a compartmentalised software stack). I bet they'd love to have to get reports for every discussion that went into status reports for that. Their reporting system would explode! (Ooops, there goes another one).
