And yet Europe keeps pretending it "respects" privacy, because companies have to put up cookie banners and respect GDPR, because you see, these superficial measures create an illusion of control while the fundamental privacy issues remain unaddressed. But when it comes to real privacy, no that's just for criminals and terrorists, according to the narrative pushed by authorities.

Europe is not free, the united states is not free, china is not free, no major nation truly protects the fundamental right to privacy in the digital age, and citizens worldwide face increasing surveillance under the guise of security.

If we want freedom, we're gonna have to create our own, because governments and corporations have proven they cannot be trusted. It is our moral duty as developers and builders to ignore draconian laws such as encryption backdoors and instead build systems that genuinely protect user privacy by design.

WE need to start having a moral conscience, because in this digital age, we have the ultimate power to shape society, not governments or corporations. The tools we build determine the world people live in. When lawmakers demand backdoors into encrypted communications or pass legislation like Chat Control, they're asking us to be complicit in mass surveillance.

But here's the truth: we have far more power than we realize. Throughout history, unjust laws have been resisted, circumvented, and ultimately defeated. The digital realm gives us unprecedented leverage. Code doesn't recognize borders or bow to authority. It follows only the rules we write into it.

When we build truly secure systems—end-to-end encrypted, open-source, decentralized—we create spaces beyond the reach of surveillance. When we design with privacy as a foundational principle rather than an afterthought, we protect fundamental human rights.

Remember that laws follow society, not the other way around.
