@0x4d6165 Anyway, to that I say: No.
It's important for privacy that a lot of the data being encrypted is low-value.
If you only ever encrypt activist stuff, then by virtue of using encryption the government can argue they know you're doing activist stuff. Possibly illegal activist stuff. And a Grand Jury will be convinced.
But if we normalize using encryption always, not just for "sensitive" stuff, then that argument falls apart.

Exactly. #Encryption is the opposite of antibiotics: the more you use it, the better it gets. That's why Mrs Wife and I use Signal to discuss buying bananas or charging the car.
