Lol, tell me you’re an ancient idiot with zero understanding of computers without telling me that you are an ancient idiot with zero understanding of computers
So that doesn’t exist and is basically pretty much impossible
Then, how about Linux? That goes exactly against the point of why Linux exists in the first place.
So no more Linux computers then? No more Linux servers, then? No more IoT devices?
That rule is bizarrely dumb. Not just bad, just dumb dumb dumb.
So in other words, a perfect law to come from the UK government!
Most phones today also just have a non-unlockable bootloader with a spyware Android skin installed. Locking something down to this level is not really impossible.
Even if they only targeted the plebs, it will completely tank the economy. One of the problems is that they will singlehandedly reduce the capacity of techies and engineers within this country.
New technical people will be hard to come by as there is no means/tools to pursue that passion, other than spending heaps of money.

The operating system is not the only way of spying, there is already firmware on your device running without your permission, pretty much impossible to see what code its running, and requires expert level knowledge to disable (or tamper with :)) if a third-party firmware implementation that allows disabling the IME doesn’t support your device.

They’ll get a surprise when they realize they just made every server in the UK illegal and stopped the economy.
It’ll be all about selective enforcement against the usual suspects.
