In the EU, they are voting on Chat Control now. This is deciding if they'll make encrypted chats illegal. This has huge effects for VPNs & Monero.

In the US, Chinese hackers have infiltrated the phone lines, And the FBI is telling ordinary Americans to encrypt their chats.

Everyone in the EU should be pushing their politicians on this issue, as it definitely affects Monero in the EU.
