This would be a great thing to happen; under a Starmer gov't (and any inbound Reform administration) it is not gonna.
Also petition.parliament.uk is a tool created by Westminister to divert energy from real action to signing a petition. If you wanna get involved with doing something like this then look to and support Open Rights Group, Big Brother Watch, Privacy International etc.
I do support them already ๐
But you're right about this government - they just got exposed for being corrupt with big tech https://archive.is/DlUeE
