PRIVACY =! SECURITY

• rawfan 5y ago
  Unless privacy == security (i.e. operational security need privacy). It's laughably to take over Telegram accounts (or just join as an invisible listener) and because nothing is encrypted, you get the full message history. Telegram has really, really great UI/UX and even DX regarding their API. Other than that it's a shit show. I would never recommend using Whatsapp, but compared to Telegram, Whatsapp is a poster child.

    Can you elaborate the claims regarding account takeover more in detail? I'm generally curious. Is it because of SS7 confirmation of pins or what are you referring to?
