Debby<p>🚨 **Privacy Alert: The New French Surveillance Law** 🚨</p><p>The proposed law not only targets drug trafficking but also poses a significant threat to the very foundation of our digital privacy. By mandating "backdoors" in encrypted messaging apps like Signal and WhatsApp, this legislation compromises the security of all users. This sets a dangerous precedent that could lead to widespread surveillance and abuse.</p><p>🔍 **Why It Matters**: Encryption is essential for safeguarding our personal communications from prying eyes, including those of malicious actors. If the government can access our messages, so can hackers.</p><p>📢 **Take Action**: Join the fight against this invasive law! If you are a French national or resident, contact your representatives and demand they prioritize our digital rights. 📚 For more information, including how to find and contact your local representative, visit the French article: [La Quadrature du Net](<a href="https://www.laquadrature.net/narcotraficotage/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">laquadrature.net/narcotraficot</span><span class="invisible">age/</span></a>).</p><p><a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/PrivacyMatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PrivacyMatters</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Encryption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Encryption</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/DigitalRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalRights</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/SurveillanceState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SurveillanceState</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/France" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>France</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/MassSurveillance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MassSurveillance</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/DataPrivacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DataPrivacy</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Censorship</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/CivilLiberties" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilLiberties</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/FreedomOfSpeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreedomOfSpeech</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Activism</span></a></p>
