So... serious question, what do we do if it passes? I mean, it'll be... everything, pretty much. Full access to any communication sent via chat.
Next step, mandatory full body checks for passing notes, ffs...

We shall use it against our masters, pushing all what they write into the public, so they realise what shit they unleashed unto us all!

Free software everywhere.
If it passed it would be really interesting to see what Signal does. And if they comply there are enough alternatives like Matrix or XMPP.

Well, guess we do get some of the cool bits of Cyberpunk™.
Thank you, will start looking into these! Now all I need is a "raw" phone and I'm set!

The law makes an exception for corporations, law and military, government officials and ... Here is the kicker organisations. So we can just create a non profit organisation with the goal of free and secure communication for all it's members and we would be exempt from it.
