Typo - it’s meant to say “the least safe country to be online”.
The headline is editorializing. So is the first paragraph of the article. Reporting that the purpose of a law is what its proponents claim is reporting a supposition as a fact.

No they won’t. What is the UK gonna do? Sue? If they don’t want their people going to my website, THEY can block my website. I’ll take whatever traffic I can get.
Edit: in the case the website is owned and operated outside the UK, which is pretty likely.
Would that help drive people to federarion?
