    Anyone asserting encryption is a tool for crime is either painfully misinformed or is attempting to manipulate legislators to gain oppressive power over the people.

    Encryption is not a crime,
    encryption is a shield.

    Encryption protects you from cyberattack, identity theft, discrimination, doxxing, stalking, sexual violence, physical harm, and much more.

    For safety, for privacy, for democracy, and for all our human rights, it's critical that we defend our right to encryption.

    Encryption Is Not a Crime

    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.

      @Em0nM4stodon will the proponents demonstrate their belief by giving out their unencrypted banking details?

        @Em0nM4stodon I also just fucking love how we're having the exact same battles again and again.

        They tried to criminalize PGP claiming it was exporting munitions.
        They tried to criminalize VoIP until they got wiretapping. (CALEA.)
        They tried to criminalize Internet access until they got backdoors (also CALEA.)

        They're not going to stop until forcibly removed or any form of privacy carries the death penalty.

          Of course, everyone knows that locks are a tool for crime. Who knows what is happening behind those doors?

              @Em0nM4stodon OK if they want to remove Encryption, I'm ok with that, but only when they also going to remove Encryption (classified details) of every single government deals with every country. Defense, banking, business deal,. Put all classified details on public portal so every citizen can see it, what is running in country.

                @Em0nM4stodon I wonder if the "encryption is a crime" lot were out in force when BlackBerry Messenger was released 20 years ago.

                        @Em0nM4stodon So I was just thinking about this and what I think was the perfect metaphor just popped into my head.

                        Those in power mandating that people not be allowed to use encryption is the same thing as if they were mandating that we not have locks on our doors. They don't want us to have encryption so they can break into everything we own without a warrant and it's absolutely no different from requiring no locks on houses so they can break in to our houses without a warrant.
