It is really funny the article, you say you use signal to communicate which is totally interceptable nowadays, you register using your real phone, so i could trace you and intercept your real phone!. If you are a real top goverment security guy NEVER use signal my friend. Seems you are newbie on the security scene.
- evilsocket 10y agoI'm not really sure who you're talking to ... they asked me to use Signal, honestly I didn't really care ...
- erlehmann_ 10y agoSignal is bad for other reasons, too, like creating a lock-in effect and being hostile to clients that remove the dependency on Google Play Services: http://news.dieweltistgarnichtso.net/posts/signal-lock-in.html http://news.dieweltistgarnichtso.net/posts/signal-lock-in.ht...
- whyever 10y agoYou could also say that Signal is good because they realized the shortcomings of federation and want to sign their binaries themselves.
- erlehmann_ 10y agoWhat would those shortcomings be? I think that networked software systems should be forward-compatible, so that new features can be introduced without breaking every existing client. Some programmers assert the only way to innovate is by having everyone run the latest version of their software and excluding competing implementations. You can see this phenomenon not only with Signal, but also, for example, with systemd.
