FBI Warning on Messaging Apps
The FBI urges Americans to ditch SMS for encrypted apps—then demands backdoors via “responsible encryption.”
Big Tech resists.
Law enforcement wants access.

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
