Hello Mikaela, has more thought been put into this? You told me this was an easy thing to do and I do understand you are under a lot of work now, but I just wanted to know if it has been talked at least. Thanks!

I do like this idea. For reference here’s the suggested quote from the forum post:

If you deny my request for a pardon, I will serve my time knowing that sometimes you have to pay a heavy price to live in a free society. I will gladly pay that price if it means we could have a country that is truly conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all women and men are created equal.

Additionally I also found this quote from a piece she wrote:

Privacy is not a luxury in America: it is a right – one that we need to defend in the digital realm as much as in the physical realm.

Created a PR to get some traction on this. I just added the privacy-related quote although both are great.

Thanks @nitrohorse ! I really can't decide between those two, on one side -as stated by Mikaela- one mightbe more broader or international but focuses more on the subject of privacy, and the other while it is more universal in terms of nationality, does not have such a clear reference to privacy; although it clearly intertwines.

I would prefer to hear someone else's opinion or that you decide tbh.

Thanks again! <3
