Signal's CEO: Then We're Leaving Sweden | Sweden Herald
-
ISP blocking, probably not, but yes ISPs can block Signal by blocking all known Signal servers. That’s why Signal supports special proxies that allow individuals to run to a
The US as of now is not threatening to kill end-to-end encryption.
-
If they go after encryption in earnest there's not going to be any room for secops left.

It's not called critical thinking it's called being a troll. And I'm not respond to you with anything but this statement.
-
None of your statements here are accurate your original statements were lies and you are a troll.
-
Nice, I get to use the only thing I know how to say in Swedish (forgive the lack of diacritics): forlat, jag pratar inte svenska.

Proton is a company claiming to operate under Swiss law (which is doubtful,as the company itself is US based).
Sadly Swiss data privacy laws are shit and it's intelligence agencies are known for overreach, especially when it comes to cross border data traffic.

That sounds like unencrypted communication with extra steps. Why not skip all of that and just give them an unencrypted service anyone can read and use. While we are at it, getting rid of those pesky passwords and unwieldy usernames is also a great idea. What could go wrong... I mean CLEARLY no one has anything to hide...

Next in line should be matrix. People say it's hard to use but the devs have gone through like 3 app revisions since then. Main instance requires email but a lot are fully anon.
-
Don't worry we stopped that in the US too. Congress doesn't make laws either. We are post-laws.
-
I use it too and am happy they finally added emoji reactions!
-
There absolutely is a way to make it log more. Simply add a function to dump the data passing through it. Just because right now there is no such function does not mean one cannot be added.
-
Sure, add it, but good luck logging in a RAM only setup. We're talking semantics because frankly, it doesn't currently affect Mullvad. If it does, we'll have to worry about it then.

‘Signal’, I think, without the s.
Never heard of this ignal app
-
I use Signal because my workplace decided to default to it.

DeltaChat makes so much more sense imho for texting. It is based on E-Mail. You can either use their e-mail service (requiring only a username) or you can use your existing imap-email account. End-End encryption is handled automatically.
-
But each of them is special!

k, moderator wants to censor my calling you out on trolling, LET's PLAY!
We have the tweet, the context, his direct statements saying he didn’t.
You just cited an opinion piece written by the PR department of Proton (https://medium.com/@ovenplayer) one article, 0 followers.
We do have the tweet. All of them in fact. They back up my claims.
The other person you commented on already addressed this and you just downvoted him without any rebuttal.
Quoting an incomplete sentence is peak bad faith. Please, elaborate on how they can backdoor the email communication without the change be visible in the clients
Backdoor is on the server side. For you to mention a backdoor on the webclient makes me thing you don't actually know how all this works. where they store your email. They already busted an activist for the french government by changing their backend terms.
Because they didn’t do anything that indicates they are violating my privacy
They violated other peoples privacy, but I see, if they don't violate yours to your face, it didn't happen?
It’s not a strawman lol.
no one claimed it in the first place, that makes it a straw man.
what would you expect any organization could do in that position?
If you're going to bust people, be open about it up front, Here we have people like you fighting as hard as they can to say how incredibly private they are simply becuase they said so . You bought into their propaganda so far that you're willing to ignore anything done wrong by them and continue to claim how secure they are.
I maintain that you are either a PR plant for Proton, or just Trolling us.
Civil enough mods?

This law cannot go through! This is a threat to democracy in our country.
Privacy matter. You must be able to talk to your friends without needing to worry about if the government is listening to you. This will not help to catch the bad guys as they will just change to some other protocol. But it opens up the possiblity for third party doing something that they should not even be able to do. Stop this now.

Did they figure out forward security and metadata yet? Last I saw they sort of handwaved it.
