We Are Running Out of Time | Congress Has Already Started on the Second Phase of Banning Your Digital Privacy | Speak to Your Senators

The Lawful Access to Encrypted Data Act

The Lawful Access to Encrypted Data Act is a bill meant to protect national security requiring “service providers and device manufacturers to provide assistance to law enforcement when access to encrypted devices or data is necessary,” introduced June 23, 2020.

Pressing criminals will lead to their arrests. However, pressing criminals will never justify the threat of creating a backdoor to the information of all average people. Backdoors can create a way for people with malicious intentions to gain access to all of your information. Encryption protects you from having unauthorized users access your data because encryption is a lock to all of your information for a key that only you have. If an unauthorized entity were to have access to your information, all your data will be at risk.

Encryption is key for ensuring data safety. Encryption is used by many ordinary people on the internet, including you. All users need encryption to protect themselves from malicious threats on the internet and elsewhere. If you use encryption, voice your concerns and save encryption.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is an international non-profit digital rights group based in San Francisco, California. The Electronic Frontier Foundation has consistently prevailed in lawsuits against the federal government, the FCC, the world's largest entertainment companies, and major electronics companies, among others.

Recently, the EFF has made an article addressing the Lawful Access to Encrypted Data act and the consequences of having a ban on encryption.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation is running a campaign made to address the Lawful Access to Encrypted Data Act even further which you can find on the their website. Your help will impact the future of encryption.

Please consider visiting the Electronic Frontier Foundation website and contacting your senators. Tell your representatives the importance of having encryption and why encryption is important to you. Encryption is a means to protect all users of the internet.

What You Can Do Right Now

Contact your senators in a polite and respectful manner. Tell them about the importance of encryption, why encryption is important to you and why encryption is important to have without a backdoor. Get to know your congress and understand who you are dealing with. Taking steps to secure digital encryption will ensure we have a safe, digital environment where everyone can be safe.
