summary
Updates on surveillance, encryption, compelled decryption, and privacy cover concrete wins and active fights: HTTPS Everywhere ships inside Tor and Brave, Privacy Badger blocks third‑party trackers, and Let’s Encrypt support continues; the Who Has Your Back project awards companies for warrant notice practices; a proposed Section 230 rollback would condition immunity on vague “best practices” (effectively pushing backdoors); Tor faces site blocking at exit nodes; Washington sees a government face‑surveillance moratorium bill supported by EFF allies; EFF reports over 50% grassroots funding and ~30k members.
