Everybody Needs To Switch To Signal To Secure Communications

As most of you know by now, Twitter has banned President Trump permanently from Twitter. Some of you may not care, some of you may even be happy about it. The thing is, if Big Tech can shut down a sitting President, they can silence us all. It's a major attack on the First Amendment, and it's really scary.

Not to worry though right? There's other freedom of speech platforms out there like Parler right? Well, Big Tech just launched a coordinated effort against them too. Google kicked them off Google Play, Apple kicked them out of the iTunes store and Amazon AWS kicked them off their hosting platform! This is a big statement that basically says, if you don't agree with our ideology, you will be crushed!

Guys, this is the United States of America! We have the right to have differing views. If we have one group silencing everyone else... Well shit, now this has become Communist China!

Elon Musk agrees, in fact he recently tweeted out the following:

Use Signal

If you are unfamiliar with Signal, here is a description from their site:

State-of-the-art end-to-end encryption (powered by the open source Signal Protocol) keeps your conversations secure. We can't read your messages or listen to your calls, and no one else can either. Privacy isn’t an optional mode — it’s just the way that Signal works. Every message, every call, every time.

There are no ads, no affiliate marketers, and no creepy tracking in Signal. So focus on sharing the moments that matter with the people who matter to you.

Signal is an independent nonprofit. We're not tied to any major tech companies, and we can never be acquired by one either. Development is supported by grants and donations from people like you.

After years of trying to convince friends and family to use more encryption in their communication, especially after the PRISM leak years ago, I finally got them on board. Now all of my family members are using Signal for text communication. This crackdown from Big Tech scared them enough. After all, it's not just big government overreach we have to worry about anymore.

You may not be concerned with this stuff yet, but you should be. I'll leave you with this thought...

First they came for the radicals, and I did not speak out—

Because I was not a radical.

Then they came for the conspiracy theorists, and I did not speak out—

Because I was not a conspiracy theorist.

Then they came for the Conservatives , and I did not speak out—

Because I was not a Conservative.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

If you are a liberal or a progressive now, you may think you are on the right side. The sad fact is that the government and big tech are on their own side. Everyone else doesn't matter. The moment you think something slightly different and do something they don't like... THIS TYRANY WILL HAPPEN TO YOU.
