Saw a flyer for a protest in Berlin about a new law.

It was taped to a lamppost near Alexanderplatz. The flyer was just a QR code and a date. No words. Scanned it with my phone. It linked to a Signal group chat about a new data retention bill. The chat had over 300 people planning a rally. Made me think, encryption isn't just for texts. It's for organizing now. How do laws even handle that?

Read about a similar protest in Lisbon using encrypted notes. How do you even ban that?

Good luck trying to ban math. They'd have to shut down the whole internet to stop people passing notes.
