Only Chuck Schumer sent me back a reply, and I can&amp;#x27;t actually tell what his position is.  He summarized the bill, then said he worked on making Big Tech more secure (&amp;quot;I have worked to have these sites deploy more secure internet protocols&amp;quot;; must have had some help from Al Gore there) and that he values privacy (&amp;quot;I voted in favor of H.R.2048, the USA Freedom Act, which became law on June 2, 2015. This bill provides additional safeguards for individual privacy in our surveillance rules and ends bulk metadata collection. Moving forward, I will continue working to strengthen privacy protections under the law.&amp;quot;).&lt;p&gt;For whatever reason, my first reading of this email was &amp;quot;fuck you, I&amp;#x27;m outlawing encryption TOMORROW&amp;quot; but after re-reading it, I&amp;#x27;m actually less sure about that.  This one is a nail-biter; outlawing encryption is probably the end of the iOS and Android ecosystem, because we&amp;#x27;ll have to use OSes from outside the US.  Or let random low-level NSA employees read all your illustrated love letters to your partner.  Feels a little gross just thinking about it.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Take action, Protect end-to-end encryption</title><url>https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/take-action-protect-end-to-end-encryption</url></story>
