MAKING ENCRYPTION MAINSTREAM
Mozilla believes encryption is key to a healthy, secure internet.
Background:
One of Mozilla’s founding principles is the idea that security and privacy are fundamental and must not be treated as optional. This is why Mozilla has always taken encryption seriously: it’s part of our commitment to protecting the Internet as a public resource that is open and accessible to all.
We want to make encryption a mainstream topic so everyone understands how important it is. Have an idea about how we can do that in your community or around the world?
Submit your ideas before June 3rd using this submission form!
Your ideas can:
- Make encryption relatable through popular culture references
- Catalyze a global conversation about the importance of online privacy
- Simplify encryption so it can be understood and embraced by a mainstream audience
Timeline
- June 3rd: Submission deadline for encryption ideas
- June 4th through the 7th: Give feedback on ideas using this form [form will be linked when final]
- June 8th: Feedback deadline
- June 10th: Mozilla will use feedback forms to analyze and select 1-3 ideas to support from official channels^
^ Even if your idea is not selected to go up on an official channel, it might be a great fit for a certain community channel! This is why we are asking for your email - we would love to empower as many ideas as possible to come to life in different forms.
Key Messaging:
- There are examples of encryption in every day life and pop culture everywhere if you look for them!
