[liberationtech] EARN IT Act / e2e encryption

[3gg]

Hello,

Sharing this with the list, and US residents specifically. Please
educate me if this is not something appropriate for this list, but I
thought it was at least tangentially related to free software and our
previous discussions on alternatives to popular online services/platforms.

You can express your support for stopping the EARN IT act here:

Further reading material, including the bill itself (which cleverly
avoids the use of the word "encryption"), are provided below:
