It's an ill-thought out and unenforceable act that will actually make the internet less safe. And Ofcom is dreaming if it thinks it can violate the rights of US corporations and citizens. Trump didn't seem fully aware of what is going on. Once he is aware, I don't think he'll let this stand.
That's twice he's lied about it on record in front of Trump and the media.
