@shifthappends @signalapp We need to remember Signal is about privacy, and by having our messages only in our device we lose some “convenience” and might face issues like the one you described above. Same if you were to have some written notes and they got wet and unreadable on a rainy day… **** happens

@shifthappends @cocoataster @signalapp Availability is indeed part of security, but systems that pass the puddle test come with a ton of new security problems. For example, do you want your peers with incredibly bad password-habits uploading your 1:1 conversation to the cloud?

@cocoataster @signalapp Yeah but this is not about opinions, this is a fact, had to learn it the hard way when phone broke down and every user with lost or broken phone will lose msgs and media, all of it — imagine a bank where you lose your funds and stocks when your cashcard breaks - not safe, agree?

@signalapp I hope you can answer my concern. Since yesterday I try to register again at @signalapp and I never get the activation code, I waited a considerable time and I don't get the code by SMS either, is access to @signalapp blocked in Cuba or is it some temporary error?

@jsrailton My rights aren't up for a vote. @signalapp is offering a service that defends my right to privacy. Anyone can use the source code freely, including to self-host the service for even greater freedom. I'd like to see the government equivalent of that from this 🤡

@signalapp Stop asking for a number to use your service. How is that private app?

@jsrailton @signalapp That lock won’t stop someone with a search warrant. Nor would help much in a might-is-right society with no laws.

@markus_ottela @signalapp Yeah well I think Signal should be the app everyone uses for chat and for that to happen it needs to give people the ability to lose their phones and still recover all their messages. A secure service ~no one uses isn’t worth anything vs one that’s 99% as secure that most use.

@kurtopsahl @signalapp That this was published shows incompetence by the NYT editorial staff. They let somebody who doesn't know he doesn't understand the issues say something about those issues.
