MODERATORS
Is there anything we can do about it?
Refuse to use any software that bows to this bullshit.
Keep using software that doesn't bow. Let them struggle to enforce any encryption ban. Safety in numbers.
Aye. The logical conclusion to this if left unchecked is restriction all the way down to the OS level. Don't let them take this first step. If they do, the others will follow.
Or even worse, locked bootloaders and a crack down on jailbreaking.
I think Mental Outlaw did a video on this. He said we should use foss forks of projects or something.
