Kids today with their blue hair and pronouns.
Kids today with their baggy pants and rap music.
Kids today with their long hair and heavy metal music.
Kids today with their long hair and hippie music.
Kids today with their leather jackets and rock’n’roll music.
Kids today with their flapper outfits and jazz music.
Same as it ever was? Same as it ever was.

Do not fall for these misguided arguments.
Most of the time people use end-to-end encrypted apps to talk about the most mundane things.
Sometimes vulnerable people use end-to-end encryption to protect themselves and stay safe.
We should keep and cherish encryption.
We should demand it everywhere.
End-to-end encryption protects our human right to privacy and safety.
We must fight for it! ✊🔒
@yasha before i studied grammar, i used commas like this

@dangillmor good writing is about clarity; anyone who needs to obscure their words like this either has nothing to say, or is actively trying to write worse
most journalists that do this are writing worse, probably on purpose, in order to obscure the truth - which is against the spirit of journalism
