  @JustNews_tg @signalapp Technology cannot fix human error. All the encryption in the world won't save you from yourself.

  @Shahinlooo Families in Iran cannot even confirm whether their loved ones are safe. This blackout is dangerous. Please help. @Meta @Signalapp #IranMassacre #DigitalBlackoutIran #KingRezaPahlavi

  @ProtonPrivacy My main issue with @signalapp is I cannot use the same account on more than one smartphone

  @zentex @signalapp All security eventually comes down to some sort of secret. Passkeys, 2FA, etc. are great because they don't require you to share secrets like passwords do. They are nearly impossible to hack. But they still require some bit of knowledge that a social engineer can get from you

  @signalapp Day 79. Silence is deadly. Iranians are being killed in the dark. Please, use your voice to help us be heard. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

  @signalapp Idk. I’m almost always on the side of more privacy but jr this can’t help a lot of children from unimaginable horrors it doesn’t look bad to me. I would suffer any inconvenience for that.

  @signalapp Isn't your app in the top 3 for hosting CP? Not surprised you have a problem with this

  @callebtc @signalapp @smspoolnet even tho i dislike the titan, port your number to Google Voice for $10 then keep the free service. only problem is it registers as VoiP so doesn't always authenticate as a true phone number. but it verifies with Signal

  Why you should really think about using mainstream messengers like @signalapp Stop linking your mob number to your metadata. No phone number, no problem; @session_app and @SimpleXChat don’t have these issues.

  @marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.

  Palaash Atri (@palaashatri) reported 33 minutes ago

  @bramh0sWali People can literally just use @signalapp instead. This is an idiotic ban for starters. Instead of fixing the problem they're just shooting the Messenger, literally.

  @femalepencil Because it’s owned by @Meta which is a terrible company - try @signalapp

  @phillipstewart @signalapp This is a standard setting on every messaging app, and Apple fixed the issue of caching them. It was never a security flaw with Signal.

  @signalapp They wreck and mismanage the economy. Making ordinary life including raising children, having a family difficult and broken. Two parents are overworked and they know it. Children are growing up without efficient parental guidance. Government comes in with a big stick. Cowards.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks its not hard to lock down a phone to the most basic of functions are you that retarded?

  Tee Time (@topicswithatee) reported 45 minutes ago

  @signalapp Im reading a lot of abuse and a lot of "tech Lord" adoration but very few actual proposals to use the tech itself to stop kids from taking or sharing **** pictures. I suppose some of the repliers above have no issue with young kids having social media apps which the medical 1/2

  @signalapp Hello, why can't Android users not send a vídeo without having to have enable Google Photos App to be able to compress any video. Why can't it be independent of Google photos for compression like WhatsApp does. Please address this issue. Thank you.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Why is this Signal's problem? But what Starmer proposed is not a solution. Why don't you come up with something since you care so much. Maybe put all under 18 in a closed environment and monitor their every move, might work

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Ooh I dunno - maybe start with the ******* parents who are failing at being, well.. parents. It is not the fault of everyone else if they are **** at that job - it is on them to deal with the issue and the absolute LAST organisation or anything that should be involved..is GOV

  @signalapp Iran's government is silencing its people by cutting off the internet, hiding atrocities from the world. You have the power to help. Will you stand with us, or betray our trust by staying silent? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  Foxy⚔️ (@Dancinfoxy) reported 51 minutes ago

  @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  B Invest HQ (@BInvestHQ) reported 51 minutes ago

  @signalapp Used fraudulently this software could scan bank accounts & other financial & data sensitive ones like passwords. This is not the way to control the problem and should be implemented through the data centres. It will not safeguard children it's another population control measure.

  Apple kind of fixed the @signalapp notification cache issue. Admitted a notification log issue, yet the iOS apps still require deleting to remove cache.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Who says we have to? You were given a fake problem to worry about.

• 
  BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported 56 minutes ago

  Signal keeps nagging to enable push notifications, with no way to stop the nags. User-hostile not user-first, and now shown to be insecure. Please fix both bugs: allow nag-stopping, an easy fix; and (if you can) avoid insecure iOS-layer push notification database, @signalapp!
