Signal has clear UI cues and redundant messaging telling you what actions are insecure.
- dodgerdan 4y agoGoogle did a security research around ssl and a crazy percentage of people think the lock icon is actually a handbag icon. The rest of the research highlighted how most users aren’t able to make informed choices, most people lack the technical basis to make those choices.
