Baseless speculation is common in HN so it doesn’t surprise me.
Apple creates e2e encryption on a new product and HN screams that we still can’t trust them and we need to live in a fairday cage with zero human contact to truly not be tracked.
Or in this instance when Meta does a reasonable thing and the same people scream that they’re still evil and we can’t trust them and we’re gullible for thinking it’s a good product.
Some people are so anti establishment that they can’t acknowledge a good thing when they see it, I’m afraid.
- colordrops 3y agoYou don't need to be pro or anti anything. With security, 95% doesn't get you there. Trusting a corporation doesn't get you there. You need transparency across the full stack, not just assurances from a private entity that isn't necessarily aligned with your interests. On top of that, there is plenty of precedent of corporations lying or doing a poor job with security and privacy. Unless you are inexperienced or new to the field, you should have no excuse to not be aware of the endless examples over the last couple decades. Sneering at people doesn't make you correct.
