  @carolecadwalla @signalapp Musk is a problem that needs to be dealt with entirely separately from protecting children from material our society has decided to bar them from. Musk and his like are a separate problem we MUST deal with anyhow. Using them as an excuse to avoid helping kids is absurd

  @topicswithatee @signalapp Take the phone away from the kids if they’re not trustworthy. Problem solved.

  Damn, I didn’t know this!!! @signalapp Might fully move from Telegram to Signal at this point. My main issue with TG has always been the scammy bots/games and the fact msg aren’t encrypted by default unless you manually use Secret Chat. Other than that, it’s honestly a great and complete app

  @MichaelAlleged @signalapp Unbelievable. Who do I have to **** at Signal to fix this?

  @blankanticensor @daily_romania @signalapp Signal is fully open source, alongside all its algorithms, and they stand unhacked - everyone is watching. If Telegram was hacked with closed-source server, it's up to them if they truly want to let the few million eyes to fix them. Only up to them, their sole choice.

  @signalapp Hey, signal is not working in India. The website shows no outage, can you look into it?

  @KhanAbbas201 @signalapp Its just terrible for groups.

  Huh, the @signalapp ended up to be the worst possible connector for an agent bot identity. I didn’t not expect to say it, but here it goes: WhatsApp is a easier to setup if you want a messaging face for your service/platform

  @signalvoyager @signalapp What's the mistake? Enabling notifications? This is not isolated to Signal. If it were then we'd have a problem. Every single app's notifications gets saved in a place and manner that is outside that app's control. There's no opt out. That is why Apple fixed it.

  @Apple Siri is horrible! Never gets it right. Try to dictate on CarPlay and it will cut you off. I message is horrible as well. The @signalapp is way better! @grok is great and always gets it right! Will even correct me sometimes and it was right! Hire English speaking people to teach IPhone to dictate properly. I’ve worked in the labs and I know who is working on the iPhones. This is the problem. “No Joke!”

  My mistake, folks. Sorry. I was on an old computer with Debian 11, and I was tired. There is no problem with Signal Desktop @signalapp in @debian 12 and 13.

  @signalapp And I didn't realize before this that signal had a backup service. So that's $2/mo ad-infinitum

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks I take all of them. You’re all terrible ******* parents and judges of what’s good for kids.

  V12 (@v12sec) reported 37 minutes ago

  @signalapp's Contact Discovery Service (CDSI) lets you securely discover which of your contacts are on Signal. It's on by default, and the app sends your full contacts list every 48h. Queries run inside an SGX enclave, so even Signal's servers can't see them. SGX encrypts the enclave's memory, so the host can't read the queries directly, and uses ORAM to hide the access pattern.

  @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.

  @signalapp I believe that to solve this problem, we must learn from the software Session/SimpleX and remove the real-name registration requirement for phone numbers. This would render any hacking efforts futile.

  They don’t need it. Their encryption is broken and behind 5 clicks away and not turned on by default. Just use @signalapp

  @PressSec Is @POTUS going to address the @signalapp chat with Israelis laughing about our service members dying for them? 😡😡👀

  @signalapp What is the issue with the sms in pakistan? When trying to create account without vpn it always tell that connect to internet, when used vpn it says we can not send sms, try in several hours

  Jason Sackey (@jsonsackey) reported 47 minutes ago

  @oliszymanski @signalapp The media which generates such things is sometimes: kids' own phones. One issue on-device-scanning is meant to address is that of children sending illegal photos of themselves, induced e.g. by groomers, extortionists, peers, or adults pretending to be children.

  @signalapp Can you please fix the erratic behavior of Signal when registering with a +234 number? pleaseee

• 
  Aleksi Sjöberg (@aleksisjoberg) reported 48 minutes ago

  @nullc0py @signalapp @404mediaco Of course that _could_ be a feature, but: - many receiving such messages would think something is broken - the recipient must have control of their own device's behavior over the sender - the real risk is the human at the other end most of the time

  @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.

• 
  B Invest HQ (@BInvestHQ) reported 52 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.

  CYP3 (@cyp3_xyz) reported 53 minutes ago

  @signalapp @404mediaco Feels bigger than a bug more like an iOS notification design issue. Could’ve affected all E2EE apps, not just Signal. What about notifications already in iCloud backups?

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Who gives a ****, just don’t give your kid a phone. Not our problem.
