🚨 Digital risk: Florida’s SB 868 is a wrecking ball aimed at encrypted communication 🔐💣 Oh, Florida. 🤦🏻‍♂️

This proposed legislation would:
📵 Ban disappearing messages
🛑 Force platforms to break end-to-end encryption
🔓 Grant unrestricted parental + law enforcement access to private DMs
⚠️ Override Florida’s own two-party consent laws

Why it matters:
• Any “backdoor” for law enforcement becomes a vulnerability for everyone
• Teens need encryption too — for safety, support, and crisis communication
• Existing investigative tools already allow lawful access when needed

This bill doesn’t protect children — it weakens the privacy and safety of every user. And if it passes in Florida, it could become a model for nationwide surveillance creep.

🛡️ Encryption protects all of us. Break it for some, and you break it for everyone.
