While there's still the Parliamentary Debate to happen
There is a response from the UK government, and yes, it is exactly what we expected the response to be

We have given too much power to a few who feel a deep hatred for people and who only want and talk about “democracy” to deceive the people.
The same "powerful" people who want to crush others with their autocratic measures are the first to commit more crimes and the first to break the law.
The measure has been imposed under cover of darkness and with malice aforethought. The poor, the workers, and the weak can only afford to protest for a short time. The next day, the alarm goes off to go to work, and the next day, and the next... You have to pay taxes and bills to live in this rotten and corrupt system.
That's what they're playing at, a game of attrition that they know they're going to win because they have all the resources in their favor, resources that we have given them.

I hope that you Brits can force your government to go back on this. You guys need to keep pushing and pushing this until they are forced to listen.
That response was already written even before this measure was implemented.
We cannot let them get away with it; this is a red line that we can never allow them to cross.
Now it has been with adult content because they have seen that it is the first and easiest step to open Pandora's box, but if they see that they succeed, their next steps will be very logical: total and absolute control of everything, replicating exactly the same steps point by point with which they have achieved this measure and little by little with more and more elements of our lives.
Political opinions? Money? Our movements? Private conversations? The sky's the limit.
I repeat, we cannot let them get away with this. It is imperative that this does not succeed if we want to preserve our current level of freedom as we know it and not fall into the greatest global dictatorship.
It's a bit reassuring to see such a strong pushback from this, atleast on the internet, but as a Brit the reality is much much bleaker.
Because they will get away with it, regardless how many or what petitions are signed they will keep brushing this off.
They have tried for literal years to get to this point so I bet they have absolutely no intention of repealling that ridiculous law, they very rarely or have ever repealed any laws they've passed infact.
One major part of the problem lies with the public, they are simply too used to this. Many of them work 9-5 jobs and struggle to meet ends by the end of the month, many are far to precoccupied with career and family, some are simply so avoidant of anything policitcal their brains simply shut down and the mere mention of such things. This has all been by design of course, they have been playing the long game.
At face value the general public would not think it's a bad law, infact I bet many would be in favour of it becuase it "seems" like a positive measure to protect people,and anybody who speaks against it would be branded a pervert or society's degenerate bunch.Completely unaware of the wider implications this law will have on them.
Basically if you even try speak out about it there will be someone who goes "Why repeal it, don't you want to protect the children?" And then you go on to explain the usual things like censorship, privacy, authoritarianism, and then they will look at you like you have a tin-foil hat on. And in that point you look like a complete fool and they look like the most rational person in the room. It's lose/lose for us. This ignorance and complacency in this country is just far to strong.
There really isn't anything we can really do, the only 1 possibility that could possibly pursuade them is major economic pressure or economic loss, that is the only thing that would make them reconsider, becuase of course it is. Just like Apple, Google and other big tech firms threaten to leave the UK the UK changed their tune real quick likely due to long term economic implications, even if it was temporary. But at this point I think its far far too late. Sure we can use VPN's or Tor but I fear those services are also on borrowed time to. Eventually they will get exactly what they want no matter how much resist or protest. This is indeed authoritarianism.
The only thing left as a fellow Brit, is honestly move out of the UK. I know it's quite a priviedge thing to say "Just leave" but it's honestly the only civil option you would have left. Finding another country where this is not also happening would be a whole different can of worms. Honestly I have no idea what to do now, what to even tell people. Because they are either on board with it or equally just as lost.

I don't live in the UK, and this measure is crushing me like a cockroach too. The solution is not simply to move to another country.
I'm not going to play along with the elites who run this world by giving them my ID or my photo. If I do, they've already won. The only logical response to all this is fierce and direct resistance.
We are heading straight for a dictatorship of thought and the elimination of individual freedoms. We cannot allow them to get away with it.
It makes me sick when I see shitty politicians criticizing China, calling it a dictatorship, when that's what they want too. I'd say they want something even harsher than the Chinese dictatorship, but they hide it because it's not popular with the masses and they wouldn't get voted in.
All of this is utter garbage, and I hope people open their eyes once and for all. To these elites, we are nothing more than cockroaches that they enjoy stepping on.
I am terribly disappointed with Elon Musk, who set himself up as a defender of freedoms, a champion of freedom of expression, and has been the first to rush to apply censorship. All of this makes me want to vomit. How disgusting.
That's the blackpill talking dude. If you leave they win. They are betting on you to give up and based on your post you're giving them exactly what they wanted. This whole kerfuffle started because a small group of people didn't stop until they got what they wanted. Be like them.
Hundreds of thousands of people backlash against internet safety rules

I mean I hope that I'm wrong on this. But I also have to be realistic. What exactly can a nation of down-trodden and mostly ignorant people do exactly? You saw the amount of signatures on the petition but they will be doing fuck all about it in parliament. Like I said before the government very rarely goes back on laws they have passed. You really have to live here to know how much they don't care. This isn't some movie where a petition or backlash magically makes people reconsider their action or suddenly gains a concience. They will give some BS speech how this law is for our own interest and some bs points and just wait until the backlash calms down which it inevitably will.
Today I asked my masters for permission to breathe at least twice a minute.
How kind my feudal lord is! In his infinite generosity, he has allowed me to breathe three times, but no more.
Welcome to the new-feudalism, where a political and powerful caste talks big about democracy but crushes its citizens with dictatorial measures that no one has voted for (very democratic and constitutional indeed).
0.1% of the population is imposing measures that the remaining 99.9% do not want. Our grandparents died decades ago in different wars so that we could live freely. Today, they are stealing that freedom from us. We have to react. This situation is extremely serious.

remember back during the Pandemic they were all about 'stay away from others and don't go to christmas parties' only for them to throw a Christmas party, record it, post the videos of their own christmas party and then the police said there was 'too little evidence that a party even occurred' for them to take action when everyone ELSE had to deal with being prosecuted for breaking isolation?
yeah here the fuckers can be blatant about saying shit then ignoring it all for their own gain
EDIT:
iirc they also passed a law saying that people with disabilities could be taken off respirators if a 'normal person' needed one during the pandemic and no one batted a bloody eye
