Fwd: Save encryption
This is a friendly message from the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
Members of Congress have mounted a major threat to your security online.
The Graham-Blumenthal bill deals with the very serious issue of child exploitation online, but it offers no meaningful solutions. It doesn’t help organizations that support victims. It doesn’t equip law enforcement agencies with resources to investigate claims of child exploitation or training in how to use online platforms to catch perpetrators. Rather, the bill’s authors have used defending children as the pretense for an attack on our free speech and security online.
Bottom line: the Graham-Blumenthal bill would give the Attorney General far too much power to dictate how Internet companies must operate. We all know how AG William Barr would use that power: to break encryption.
Barr has repeatedly insisted that communications platforms should undermine their own security in order to give law enforcement agencies access to our private messages. The Graham-Blumenthal bill would finally give Barr the power to demand that those platforms obey him or face serious repercussions, including both civil and criminal liability. Barr’s demands would put encryption providers like WhatsApp and Signal in an awful conundrum: either face the possibility of losing everything in a single lawsuit or knowingly undermine their users’ security, making all of us more vulnerable to criminals.
The so-called EARN IT Act is anti-speech, anti-security, anti-innovation, and unnecessary. Let’s tell Congress to reject it.
Stop the Graham-Blumenthal BillThank you,

De stad Brussel heeft onlangs besloten af te zien van 5G:”Het is voor mij ondenkbaar zulke technologie toe te laten als ik niet kan verzekeren dat we de burgers kunnen beschermen. Brusselaars zijn geen laboratoriumratten, wier gezondheid ik inruil voor winst.” aldus de minister
20.000 satelieten extra !!!
Ter vergelijking: sinds 1957 zijn er in totaal 8.378 satellieten gelanceerd en de hoeveelheid ruimtepuin (o.a. afkomstig van deze satellieten) is nu al gigantisch. (Bron: UNOOSA – kantoor van Verenigde Naties voor Outer Space Affairs)
