well if she doesn't mind reporting everything to Chinese government in that piece of spyware (you can't even launch it with blocked location permission) and have censored speech with deleted inappropriate Moments posts and PRIVATE communication, then it's nice app i guess
- fornever 10y agoMaybe the US companies and government should have thought about that before making that behavior normal in the digital world.
- ralfd 10y agoIn contrast to your sarcastic snark the normal behavior in the west is secure end-to-end encryption (iMessage, Whatsapp).
- fornever 10y agoI don't see how a slight improvement primarily in the last two years after Snowden is "normal behavior"? WhatsApp ran without end-to-end encryption for six years, so did Gmail without SSL as the default. The industry and government has had two decades to impose "western values" through precedent, standards or legislation. Instead they chose short-term profits and intelligence operations. Users have few rights and even lower expectations.
