The first time zoom announced E2EE, they didn't actually have it and then said something like "well the server is the end, and then there is another end...". IIRC In the end they acquihired keybase so they fix the crypto for

I appreciate the evidence-based approach, but it would be nice if the evidence was linked.

The USA are freeriding the benefits of EU's regulation, sounds like they (EU) should raise tariffs for that! (if you can't tell whether that is sarcasm that might be because I also don't know)

Oh yeah, it also did that for me recently when I asked how I would go about designing a PCB that takes M.2 daughterboards. It recommended stems and threads I should buy. Unfortunately all the product links were dead.

I think the first three items are "add effects, and do it right": Capabilities to IO can be done by letting IO functions interrupt and call an effect handler, and the caller can specify the effect handler and do access control in

I general I agree, but we are also in the paradoxical situation that generic associated constants in traits are stable, but you can't actually use them as constants. You can't use them as const generics for other types, and you ca

I think the desire to do something meaningful can easily exist outside of a "competitive dynamic", which was the thing that felt off for me.

Not really. Godwin's law points to inadequate comparisons to Hitler and the "classic Nazis", whereas your parent points out that he supports real, alive Nazis today. It's a not a Nazi comparison, it's stating facts.

Apparently they didn't learn much, given that MTProto 2.0 still uses IGE. Or still derives the IV from a hash of the message. The article you link does not mention "cloud encryption". What is that? TLS?

They shouldn't be using PBKDF2 for new installations at all. It's been nearly a decade since the Password Hashing Competition, and you should just use the memory-hard Argon2. Also, W3C should finally get it into the WebCrypto API,

The e2e encryption protocol is the definition of "let someone who has just learned about Diffie-Hellman roll their one crypto". It's called MTProto, and version 2 mostly updates padding and uses SHA256 instead of SHA1. Yes, S
