Open Rights GroupMake our voice heard at Apple’s encryption hearingWhat's at stake? Your photos of your kids. Your bank statements. Your payslips. Your CV. Should you be able to store these important items safely and securely in the cloud or should the Government be able to make us more vulnerable to criminals and hackers? It’s nearly time for the UK’s Investigatory Powers Tribunal to answer that question when they hear Apple’s appeal against the government’s demands to weaken its products. The outcome will affect all of us, whether or not we use Apple products.

1. V2 Encryption: Mandatory E2EE & Audited Cryptography
#DeltaChat V2 enforces end-to-end encryption by default, eliminating legacy "unencrypted chat" risks. The Rust-based core uses rPGP (audited OpenPGP library) with Ed25519 (same as Signal) and post-quantum algorithms. ETH Zurich’s 2024 audit fixed 20 vulnerabilities in SecureJoin/Autocrypt protocols .
➤ Security benefit: Protection against MITM attacks via QR-based verification .

Oopsie! It's Signal Gate, the sequel. A random person was added to a law enforcement group chat that included officers from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). In it, they discussed highly sensitive information about an active search for an individual seemingly marked for deportation. Here's more from @404mediaco
404 Media · ICE Adds Random Person to Group Chat, Exposes Details of Manhunt in Real-TimeThe texts were sent to a group called “Mass Text” and show ICE using DMV and license plate reader data in an attempt to find their target, copies of the messages obtained by 404 Media show.
This ain't good. Yet another attempt at breaking #encryption and sacrificing #privacy because "think about the children!"

The End of the Privacy of Digital Correspondence
Take action to stop Chat Control now!
The Chat Control 2.0 proposal in detail
Changes proposed by the European Parliament
Fight Chat Control – Protect Digital Privacy in the EU: The EU (still) wants to scan your private messages and photos.
The "Chat Control" proposal would mandate scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos. This threatens fundamental privacy rights and digital security for all EU citizens.

@daj wrote an interesting post about the encryption hype made me think for a couple of days.

Q-Day isn’t sci-fi—it’s the day a quantum computer can break the cryptography that underpins all email, banking, military comms, and cryptocurrencies. Experts put the odds at 1-in-3 before 2035, with a nonzero chance it’s already happened in secret. The threat is twofold: “harvest now, decrypt later” espionage, and real-time authentication attacks that could shut down grids or hijack markets. Post-quantum encryption standards exist, but upgrading the world’s infrastructure—from hospitals to satellites—is a decades-long process. Like Y2K, the best-case outcome is a collective scramble that makes Q-Day anticlimactic. The worst case? The end of digital trust as we know it. 
TL;DR
1-in-3 chance by 2035
Risk to all modern encryption
Bitcoin could go to zero
Global infrastructure at risk
