  @bradbury2010 @signalapp oh, apologies. I think we need to make a real distinction between secrecy and privacy and have established rights, like the Americans do, that protect our right to privacy. This can be broken under the condition there is enough solid evidence someone is doing something harmful

  @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!”

  @signalapp Signal is letting Romanian scammers use my account to steal money off Irish people… I reported the issue to them over a month ago and the company refuses to look into it

  @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 European union attempts to take down Signal because they can not control it. So they try to make a picture that the app is not safe.

  B Invest HQ (@BInvestHQ) reported 23 minutes ago

  @signalapp If used fraudulently this software could be used to scan bank accounts and other financial and data critical ones like passwords. This is not the way to control the problem and should be controlled through the data centres etc.

  @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

  @BrendanEich @signalapp It’s an iOS issue, not Signal’s problem. Dump your Apple phone, us GrapheneOS …done.

  @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

  @NivalCat @BrendanEich @signalapp I find it a bigger problem that they still require a phone to run. Cannot install on a PC (Signal Desktop still requires a phone to be running and proxy messages to it).

  marc hofer (@marchofer) reported 42 minutes ago

  @BrendanEich @signalapp How !? Just disable notifications in the Signal settings and you can mitigate. Maybe it should be default and should come with a warning for users when activated. But the real issue is with iOS being garbage.

  @signalapp Hi Signal team — solo dev building an AGPL app on libsignal. To ship it on the Apple App Store I'd need a §7 App Store additional permission for libsignal (you did this for an earlier library ). I've filed the details in a GitHub issue on the libsignal repo. Could I get it in front of the right person? My code's AGPL, full source published. Thanks for libsignal. 🙏

  @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

  @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.

  CYP3 (@cyp3_xyz) reported 49 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?

  @signalapp phishing thrives in the gap between encrypted transport and unverified identity. the hardest privacy problem isn't the message content, it's proving who sent it

  BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported 54 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!

  not_cyotee (@NCyotee) reported 56 minutes ago

  @aaron0v @signalapp Simple, Signal controls your keys, and the app delivery lifecycle. Yes, it is OS, and anyone can compile and run it. For now. They systematically shut down any popular alternate builds. And they obfuscate the compiled code. You have to use their servers, so at any point they can change the underlying behavior by pushing and update. And the simple fact, if they can recover your key for you, you have no guarantee they can't recover your key for themselves. Matrix allows any client. You control your key. No recovery. If you lose your key, you lose access to all your old messages.

  @signalapp project folders help, but unread semantics get messy once muted chats are included
