Estimado señor Zuckerberg,
Las organizaciones a continuación escriben hoy para alentarlo, en términos inequívocos, a continuar aumentando la seguridad de extremo a extremo en los servicios de mensajería de Facebook.
Hemos visto solicitudes de los gobiernos de los Estados Unidos, el Reino Unido y Australia pidiéndole que suspenda estos planes “hasta que [Facebook] pueda garantizar que la privacidad adicional no reduzca la seguridad pública”. Creemos que tienen esto completamente al revés: cada día que las plataformas no admiten una seguridad sólida de extremo a extremo es otro día en que estos datos pueden ser violados, mal manejados u obtenidos por entidades poderosas o actores deshonestos para explotarlos.
Dado el notable alcance de los servicios de mensajería de Facebook, garantizar la seguridad de extremo a extremo predeterminada proporcionará una bendición sustancial a la libertad de comunicaciones en todo el mundo, a la seguridad pública y a los valores democráticos, y le instamos a que continúe con sus planes de cifrar mensajes a través de los productos y servicios de Facebook. Le recomendamos que se resista a los llamados para crear las llamadas “puertas traseras” o “acceso excepcional” al contenido de los mensajes de los usuarios, lo que debilitará fundamentalmente el cifrado y la privacidad y seguridad de todas las personas usuarias.
Sinceramente,

Dear Mr. Zuckerberg,
OPEN LETTER: FACEBOOK’S END-TO-END SECURITY PLANS
The organizations below write today to encourage you, in no uncertain terms, to continue increasing the end-to-end security across Facebook’s messaging services.
We have seen requests from the United States, United Kingdom, and Australian governmentsasking you to suspend these plans “until [Facebook] can guarantee the added privacy does not reduce public safety”. We believe they have this entirely backwards: each day that platforms do not support strong end-to-end security is another day that this data can be breached, mishandled, or otherwise obtained by powerful entities or rogue actors to exploit it.
Given the remarkable reach of Facebook’s messaging services, ensuring default end-to-end security will provide a substantial boon to worldwide communications freedom, to public safety, and to democratic values, and we urge you to proceed with your plans to encrypt messaging through Facebook products and services. We encourage you to resist calls to create so-called “backdoors” or “exceptional access” to the content of users’ messages, which will fundamentally weaken encryption and the privacy and security of all users.
Sincerely,
7amleh-The Arab Center for Social Media Advancement
