Absolutely. Within the Tibetan context, we often append phrases like
"For the movement" or "For the cause" to digital security campaigns.
This is for the exact reason you mentioned - emphasizing that it isn't
just about you, but about everyone you interact with.

In particular, this is critical for Tibetans in exile, who communicate
with those inside occupied Tibet, as they can be used as an indirect
conduit for malware, social engineering, etc.
