No one cares about facts. "Encryption keeps you safe" is a fact but its a boring one, it won't get shared around on facebook, which means it wont get out to the people who don't know its a fact. When you don't have facts to back you up you can just make up whatever story you want "Encryption kills your kids" will get shared on facebook no worries.

If the brexit debate taught us anything it's that people can see BS in arguments from a mile away and, when it happens on both sides they dismiss all the facts and go with their instincts. There are some really good arguments against what the UK government is trying to do. I think dressing them up with falsehoods does nothing to advance them.
What about the Brexit debate could possibly make you think that?
