I see the "Repeal the OSA" petition is gaining traction, but I can't be optimistic about it at all.

The best thing you can do is write to your MP - rub it in their face. If it's easy for you and you feel confident, go to their constituency surgery and raise the issue in person. Some important talking points that will "activate" MPs:

• British ingenuity and skill created the World Wide Web. Much of the technology that is popular and profitable today was developed in small, online communities that the OSA is destroying.

• If Labour's vision for a future Britain is one of technology and AI, the UK must be a leader in free discourse online, not a restricted, closed-down Internet state.

• Policing the entire World Wide Web isn't the UK's job. Ofcom is already stretched thin and this is a waste of resources that could otherwise be put to better use keeping UK citizens (including children) safe. Money is better spent on tooling and education for parents and children alike.

World cold and hard. Werewolf girlfriend soft and warm.

B&Q's website (diy.com) is just totally unusable because they've turned it into a "marketplace" where >50% of the stuff listed isn't actually sold by or at B&Q.

I swear SEO and marketing people are a blight on humanity. I bet if they sacked off that whole thing and launched a "McMaster-Carr" style "just a fucking catalog of stuff we sell" site sales would skyrocket.
