     @arstechnica Really really need to look at what is behind this, ultimately the UK government, they have form now of basically messing everything up. Nadine Dorries had input. The one who admitted in a committee meeting to sharing her Netflix password.

     Now awaits the UK gov to take X to the cleaners.......
