to data leakage and data theft by way of their eavesdropping, tracking technologies and
purposefully built back-doors.

Many years ago the US Navy had posters out there saying that ‘loose lips sink ships’ which
means data leakage and data theft is a bad thing. Which actually means that strong encryption
is a good thing. Build a strong ship so it won’t sink. Don’t purposefully make or share
weaknesses so the ship doesn’t sink. Encryption strengthens national security – it also
strengthens privacy.

I implore you to join us at Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM) in this philosophy by joining
https://www.savecrypto.org/ and stand up for no backdoors. Stand up for strong privacy. Look
for products and services from vendors who believe in strong privacy. They will be the guiding
light in helping you reclaim your personal sovereignty - something many don’t yet realize is
priceless, until they lose it. Expect more from us on this subject matter here in Cyber Defense
Magazine’s monthly edition of Cyber Warnings.
