Contact your EU representatives by TOMORROW’S November 12th deadline to save encryption! Austrian public radio just published a secret draft of a planned Council resolution seeking to undermine encryption.

The @EuropeanPirates wants you to take action by TOMORROW’S November 12th deadline by emailing your EU representatives. They have provided template letters in several languages and the email addresses for you to contact by TOMORROW’S deadline. More information, the template letters and email addresses can be found here.

Contact your representatives TODAY and by TOMORROW’S deadline to secure your private communications on messenger services such as Telegram, Signal, and WhatsApp. Most terrorism attacks we later learn the police and government knew the people involved were a problem as we’re seeing now in Austria and did very little to stop it. Banning encryption would harm people and cost lives. Banning encryption threatens the fundamentals of democracy! This will destroy encryption services putting us all at risk of surveillance, censorship, human rights abuses, and more. The safety and financial well being of every country depends on encryption and a critical part of digital infrastructure!

Most elected officials have no idea how the Internet works!! Our data such as our medical records and the government’s own secret documents would no longer be protected. Banning encryption would harm people and put the world at risk. Please sign this petition too!
