Notes



gollark: But then, a week later... a *letter*, sent by *post*, from someone else, which was related only in that it seemed to mention encryption.
gollark: I got an email *back* pretty fast saying "we've forwarded your concerns to parliament", but nothing for a while after that.]
gollark: I decided to contact my MP a while ago after the government said something *especially* stupid about end-to-end encryption.
gollark: It makes everyone libleft!
gollark: Well, I generally err on the side of "things should preferentially not be restricted", as a libcenter-according-to-the-political-compass.
