@Jtcryptodr @signalapp For me, the problem seem to be caused by having censorship circumvention turned on

@propublica I hope the @signalapp team stays up at night pondering what they would do if their app replaces WhatsApp as the choice for organizers of genocide. Given FB's surveillance business model, though, it seems they have an obligation to prevent genocide? A wicked problem by definition.

Christian Paolella (@creepiepanda) reported
@signalapp am i the only one having issues with sending messages? For a few days now messages very often don't get sent right away. Sometimes takes a few minutes for the message to go out (internet connection is fine). Signal Beta v5.23.1 on Android #Signal

@Jtcryptodr @signalapp The problems seems to be caused by having censorship circumvention turned on. Hope they can resolve the issue. Good luck!

@dosch @moxie @signalapp Its not really the E2E encryption itself, the problem is that with WhatApp the endpoints cannot be trusted. This problem doesn't occur in #opensource, peer-reviewed apps.
