I would not trust any sw from Russia. Could be a vector for the FSB. I'm sure they have thought about it.

- jan_Sate 8mo agoThe same could be said for software from the US. Could be a vector of CIA. For average US citizens, it might even be safer to use Russian software because FSB can't come after them.
- n4bz0r 8mo agoFunny thing that it's exactly the same for Russian citizens - they'd rather use US government malware. Same goes for mail providers.
- einpoklum 8mo agoIt is not a bad rule, to use online services / software where you know that the malicious owners are likely not after you nor in cahoots with the government where you live. Or you can take the Swiss option with stuff like ProtonVPN, Signal etc. :-)
- ale42 8mo agoSignal is not Swiss, though, although I'd like they to be ;-)
