The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you'd like more regulation in the tech industry. But we're not sure exactly what regulation you'd like.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
