If they truly cared about the children,
they would be much more concerned about AI everywhere than end-to-end encryption everywhere.
Encryption actually protects the children.
AI harms them, and us.

It's global encryption day!
Encryption is such a critical tool to protect your personal information, but in some places around the world it's under threat.
We need to remind people and especially our governments that we all need strong, encryption without backdoors to stay safe on the internet.
What's your favorite encryption tool? Let us know in the replies!

Today October 21st is
Global Encryption Day! 🔒🎉
This is a good time to remember that encryption is essential to online security and digital privacy.
Despite some governments pushing hard to weaken it, we must remind them that we all need encryption, and especially end-to-end encryption, to stay safe online 💚
Privacy is a human right
and end-to-end encryption is one of the best tool we have to enforce that right.

Encryption is not a crime, encryption protects us all. Encryption, and especially end-to-end encryption, is an essential tool to protect everyone online. Attempts to undermine encryption are an attack to our fundamental right to privacy and an attack to our inherent right to security and safety.
Politicians carved themselves out of chat control because they know exactly how dangerous mass surveillance is.
If they truly believed scanning everyone's messages was safe and necessary, they'd include their own communications too. Instead: surveillance for citizens, privacy for politicians and police.
They understand the risks well enough to protect themselves. They just think you deserve less protection than they do.
When lawmakers exempt themselves from their own surveillance laws, they're confessing those laws are harmful.
In case you are falsely feeling protected outside of Europe:
Chat Control doesn't just concern Europeans. It concerns all of us.
These kind of regulations will come for all of us, everywhere, if we do not ALL push against it everywhere.
If you do not understand how this is all intertwined, I invite you to read more privacy news and in-depth analysis. Because we must all support each other's privacy fights.
Privacy is a human right 💚
Fight for a better world, together ✊🌍

No-AI and solid end-to-end encryption is the new tech hype.
If you don't invest heavily in solid end-to-end encryption, privacy-protective and No-AI features, you will be left behind. People might even laugh at you.
Tell everyone.
Magical backdoor only for "the good guys" is a complete fantasy 🔑✨
Let's say the strategy is akin to creating a MagicalKey that unlocks every door (a magical key because thinking encryption backdoors would only be used by "the good guys" is a great example of magical thinking).
Imagine only 1000 police officers have MagicalKeys.
Overtime, let's say only 1% of the police officers accidentally lose their MagicalKey. Now 10 MagicalKeys are lost in the wild and could be used by anyone else, for any purposes, including crime.
Then, let's say only 0.1% of police officers get corrupted by a crime gang. That's just one right? This corrupted "good guy" lets the gang create a double of the MagicalKey. Which crime gang wouldn't want a key that can magically open any door?
Now, the gang creates doubles of the MagicalKey they have. They use it subtly at first to avoid detection. They make sure they never leave traces behind, so victims have no idea their door got unlocked.
During this time, they steal your data, they sell it, they use it to impersonate you, they use it to harm you and your loved ones.
Then, another criminal figures out on their own how to emulate a MagicalKey without even having access to one.
The criminal creates a reproducible mold for this Emulated-MagicalKey and sells it to other criminals on the criminal market. Now, the MagicalKey™️ is available to any criminals looking for it.
Restrictions on the backdoor are off. Your personal data is up for grabs.
This is what is going to happen if backdoors are implemented in end-to-end encryption. But don't worry they say, "it's only for the good guys!".
At least, the criminals' data will also be up for grabs, right?
Nope! The criminals knew about this, so they just started using different channels that weren't impacted.
Criminals will have their privacy intact, they don't care about using illegal tools, but your legal privacy protections will be gone.
Backdoored end-to-end encryption isn't end-to-end anymore, it's just open-ended encryption. This offers pretty much no protection at all.

by me:
Encryption Is Not a Crime
The war against encryption isn't new, but the quantity of data about us that needs protection is.
Despite the senseless attacks,
it is vital that we fight back to protect the right to using end-to-end encryption.
Encryption protects us all: https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2025/04/11/encryption-is-not-a-crime/

Less talk about "AI".
More talk about post-quantum encryption pretty please 🥺🔒✨

by me:
What happened in the UK this week is terrible news and a loud warning alarm for the rest of the world.
Governments around the world have been increasingly putting pressure on tech companies to break end-to-end encryption and install mass surveillance systems.
We must push back against this.
Encryption is not a crime.
Encryption keeps us safe 🔐

The UK government has served a technical capability notice to Apple under the UK Investigatory Act. Apple's response was to remove the Advanced Data Protection feature from the UK this week. What does this mean for Apple users in the UK and for encryption rights worldwide?
