- Spivak 9y agoThe people who pay aren't asking for E2E. They're asking for auditable shared history. We're in a forums of tech nerds, outside of our bubble encryption is pretty low on the feature totem pole.
- cyphar 9y agoHow do explain the rising usage of Telegram/WhatsApp/Signal, if encryption isn't important to people? I find that most people actually do care about their privacy, but they want it to be made easy for them as well.
- _Tev 9y agoI know plenty of people using Whatsapp and no people caring at all about its approach to privacy. I have not heard of those other two platforms outside of privacy-obsessed communities. Are real usage data disproving my anecdata?
- def_true_false 9y agoAFAIK Telegram has a substantial user base in Russian speaking countries, Iran and cryptocurrrency related communities. Although I think that's mostly thanks to their successful marketing rather than offering any real privacy/security.
