Britain needs to update the "playbook for dictators"! The #OnlineSafetyBill just passed - with the option to break #encryption anytime.

We at Tutanota will not accept the Online Safety Bill.

Our passion is to fight for your right to #privacy. 💪

A win for #privacy! Now make your voice heard so that all countries follow the Danish example: https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/denmark-email-encryption-gdpr
