  • Louferlou LF ⚡️ (@Louferlou) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp This kind of application can't get down ? Don't see the link with the current situation and the non-profit part ?

  • RafaelVMonroy Rafael V. Monroy (@RafaelVMonroy) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp But what happened to them? Do you think they got hacked? Inside job? Force majeur ? If an outage like that can happen to Facebook being a huge conglomerate with probably lots of redundant servers, couldn't it happen to signalapp and other smaller players too?

  • markeltringham Mark Eltringham (@markeltringham) reported

    Users of WhatsApp. With it being down now might be a good opportunity to embrace @signalapp It's end to end encrypted, has essentially the same functionality as WhatsApp and, crucially, isn't owned by Facebook

  • endallgym Steve Boucher (@endallgym) reported

    Curious to see @signalapp s increase in users as a result of WhatsApp and the rest being down

  • Casualpol reader_techno (@Casualpol) reported

    @rickmcull @Snowden @signalapp For one,Gary is only their for the clearing house. Something that will help fund the entire system,something no one that aims to take down Facebook can do without funding. 2,Read about their backgrounds.Where they worked doesn’t define them completely. Also,you ignored the rest.

  • FranLMSP Fran (@FranLMSP) reported

    @Snowden @signalapp Signal suffers the same issue as other centralized services. If the main server is down and no one is able to talk anymore. A better choice would be a federated/decentralized protocol such as XMPP or Matrix.
