TL;DR:

This bill’s proposed amendment NC21 would out trans people. It was rejected by the MPs, but the House of Lords have effectively appealed this.

However, the article claims that even if this amendment isn’t in there, the bill itself is dangerous, allowing the government to reintroduce these effects even without the amendments, by allowing itself to define how and what data needs to be shared by verification providers.

It would do so at its own discretion, without further legislative scrutiny.

Yeah, but that’s because I choose the second highest plan available to me. Entry cost is lower, and I’d expect most poor families would go for that or the next tier above.

$30 discount on broadband bills

It’s wild that it costs much above $30 at all for you guys. In the UK 100Mbps starts at £22/m (~$30) and I’m comfortably at 500mbps at around £35/m ($45) and we’ve got pretty bad deals compared to other European countries!
