WhatsApp has been selling your metadata to facebook for quite a while now. Their marketing gimmick of "end-to-end encryption" makes everyone think it's safe and private but here's the thing, your messages don't matt

The revenue it will generate will be astonishing. Probably even make 10-20% of facebook's total revenue. It's never too late to shift to Signal

Your opinion has nothing to do with it. Research shows it's true

I personally, and hope that's true for a lot of people, owe pretty much everything we have accomplished to a lot of open source projects. It's just crazy, I am extremely grateful and try to donate every now and then

I wonder how they find extremely talented exploit developers. The exploits they produce probably takes years to develop at minimum

> Graphite allows the operator to covertly access applications, including encrypted messengers like Signal and WhatsApp That's pretty obvious. Signal doesn't protect you against full device compromise. Any app can trivially ext

What? That is really stupid way to think you're better off using Linux Desktop. Plenty of modern malware versions target pretty much every OS, from windows to mac

Use a goddamn VPN or Tor if you don't like being profiled. We live in the era of mass surveillance. It is obvious that everyone is being profiled all the time. It's a meta-data aggregating player, how the fuck do you think that wo

Linux desktop has terrible security model. Unless they intend to spend significant amount of time hardening the base distro, which also comes with it's own caveats. Windows, for all it's problems, is still a better choice for an e

LibreOffice is terrible. I cannot believe how anyone can do anything with it. I cannot stand Word but it's just impossible to find a true replacement for it. OnlyOffice should get more recognition. It is the closest you can get for Wor

Yeah, they haven't posted about shutting down on twitter. It was posted in the matrix room: > We previously let the community know we need Android partner access in order to port to Android 16 early and for other reasons. We have no

GrapheneOS is in dire need of an OEM partner access which can provide them with the latest source which Google has put behind a paywall. Otherwise, GrapheneOS will not be able to continue the development and eventually shut down

Get a better lock. If you don't care enough to not get lock picked, whose fault is it? The bar to avoid this form of tracking is not high at all. It's trivial for anyone who is willing to put some serious efforts in defending th

This is one of the reason you need to segregate your whole LAN. At the bare minimum, use VLANs to knock off these ruthless scanners. And obviously, this wouldn't be possible if you used a strong adblock list on whatever DNS you're

I am definitely not surprised. It's quite normal, as I stated. What I was trying to say was they are abusing the private frontends to get around legal restrictions of aggressively scraping the web

What's with the use of port 48 for SSL? Any particular reason?

Not for you. Come to think of it, a monetary system which is designed on cryptographic operations would never be truly understood by people who love being oppressed and thrive under the mass surveillance of the banking system. You are just

by udev4096 1y ago
As if the banking system is any better. How can any legitimate payment system which has no cryptographic operations, is highly centralized, where the money can be printed out of thin air and way too many other reasons, be taken seriously?
