Well it's pretty easy as Telegram doesn't encrypt anything at all and stores all contacts and message history server side. (yes, there is a secret chat feature which is encrypted, but unlike Signal it can only connect with a singl

I bet McDonalds sells 50,000 burgers for each time that happens. In my experience most would choose a warmed sausage pack from the convenience store over what is sold as "pad thai" in Bangkok. Like okay, you absolutely need to eat

The dish is foreign in Thailand too. It's always available where westerners might be expected to ask for it but I've never, ever, ever seen anyone Thai order it. (Where westerners are not expected it's not on the menu) I can

I think the issue is that not very many customers want to maintain their own mail server anyway, so it's just easier to turn down these requests unless the customer asking spends enough money that you don't want to offend them.

Something is fishy about this story. Why would a sports team in town for training care what is in the local library? Even if they went there, surely the team members would be well aware that drawing attention to a taboo subject has no perso

Well, apparently they use mainstream services quite a lot, even openly where search engines can index it. I think what goes unsaid here is that Facebook reported a lot of it to the authorities and they don't do much about it anyway.

I'm not sure how listening to someone's presentation or reading their article about Ruby on Rails conveys legitimacy on their political views. In your view, how does this transfer of legitimacy take place?

Is it cynical? And is it's path really that different to the one taken by the US? The US didn't project power on a large scale until it became a major economic power and involvement in major military conflict drew there.
