It's global encryption day!

Encryption is such a critical tool to protect your personal information, but in some places around the world it's under threat.

We need to remind people and especially our governments that we all need strong, encryption without backdoors to stay safe on the internet.

What's your favorite encryption tool? Let us know in the replies!

New Privacy Guides article 🔓👁️‍🗨️
by @jw and me:

Outside the Fediverse, you may have
encountered platforms where you were obligated to provide your "real" name.

These so-called "real-name" policies, often in fact requiring legal names, are horrible for everyone's privacy. But it's also important to consider how discriminatory and dangerous they are.

Pseudonymity isn't a trivial matter,
it saves lives.

Fighting against policies attacking
online pseudonymity, such as real-name policies, age-verification policies, and Chat Control proposals, isn't just a banal fight to keep using silly nicknames online. It's a battle for democracy, for civil liberties, and for human rights.
