@LukefromDC @Mer__edith Most people don’t know how to do stuff like this. Regular folks using WhatsApp will get surveiled and have their lives ruined by false positives.

@MisuseCase @Mer__edith Than it will be up to that to make this as accessable as we can and to broadcast information and warnings.
Those the government most wants to surveill will as always be the ones they miss. From organizers to underground direct action crews, from the best freedom fighters to the worst terrorists, they won't be able to read ANY of that traffic.
This will be like trying to prevent drones from delivering guns and drugs into prisons by monitoring the nearest airport.
In other words, the surveillance will hammer the civilian populace while completely missing its intended audience, same way IOF bombs do.
