A lot of people are using encryption to protect themselves from states and police: queer people, anarchists, communists, antifascists, immigrants, drug users, sex workers, etc. Not because they’re corrupted, but because they’re working exactly as intended.

What’s the point of using Free Software if it’s to help the armed branch of proto-fascist states? Who are we trying to liberate with software and why, what’s the point? I think we have to remember that software is a tool that accomplish things (what?) for people (who?). Whatever oppressive institution using Free Software isn’t building a better future.
