"EFF supporters get that strong encryption is tied to one of our most basic rights: the right to have a private conversation. In the digital world, privacy is impossible without strong encryption.

That’s why we’ve always got an eye out for attacks on encryption. This year, we pushed back—successfully—against anti-encryption laws proposed in the U.S., the U.K. and the E.U. And we had a stark reminder of just how dangerous backdoor access to our communications can be."

EFF is one of those orgs for which I would run to join if I ever saw an opening that I could fill.

PGP/GPG is like a pistol because signal, session or even better, Monero are like assault rifles. Won’t be long I’m tellin’ you.
