The flow of mass surveillance?
yeah that’s very clearly the direction EU is headed in
And that makes @shortwavesurfer@monero.town a trouble maker
Yeah I don’t get it. Maybe I’m missing something
Working around laws that ban E2E encryption will ultimately be seen as subversive and the legal system will go after people doing this, what part of this is unclear?

Of course they will why else would you break unjust laws.
We aren’t talking about something that directly harms another. We care talking about sending a private message and if that is against the law the laws should be openly broken.
