We’ll work with the Central Indian Government to champion Element, Matrix, decentralisation and the importance of private communications. But we’ll never compromise our mission to provide secure comms for all.

@element
Banning element because terrorists are using it is like banning iPhone by the same logic. Just like an iPhone can connect to any mobile network/provider using a sim card, element can connect to any matrix server/provider.
@element Maybe try selling it to the cops there.
@element any results yet?
With @sflcin we are challenging this ban in High Court of the southern state of #Kerala

@element Thanks for this statement and your work on making #privacy accessible to all. We will be with you in this fight to reverse this stupid ban, that is ineffective in its stated goal and seriously undermines our fundamental right to privacy.
