-
SignalVoyager (@signalvoyager) reported@notesnook @signalapp Signal devs must lead the way leading other devs to takre control back. They should guide other devs. Yet they follow common protocols and win stupid prices like this. Then cry for Apple support to help them fix things. I expect better from Signal. (n/n)

𝐌i𝐜h𝐚e𝐥 𝐈. A𝐫i𝐧z𝐞 (@smartgods042) reported@signalapp I’m having issue creating an acct, why?
-
Andrew W 🥝 (@aw_nz) reported@0xPhilH @vonderburchard @signalapp The users got hacked, not Signal. If those users' Signal accounts hadn't been phished, it's likely at some point in the near future those same users' accounts on some other service would be phished as the same vulnerable point of entry (the user themselves) remains.
-
Mzansi Pulse (@Mzansi_Pulse) reported@VusiThembekwayo @signalapp @telegram This will not help anyone. If one needs a secure way of communicating, one needs a self hosted option
-
Hammad Maqbool (@iMrHammad) reported@PTAofficialpk what is the issue? Why I can't receive OTP for @signalapp app? Why google rcs is not working in Pakistan? Are these things banned from PTA?
-
not_cyotee (@NCyotee) reported@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.

Sani (@mostlysani) reported@signalapp i’m not able to login or subscribe as a new user after changing my phone
-
Palaash Atri (@palaashatri) reported@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.
-
FAFO (@areyoukay) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Stop giving kids smart phones Problem solved It’s on the lazy *** parents
-
Tech_Temp (@Tech_Temp_) reported@agaefendi_ @signalapp It's amazing that you've reported the CSAM. But what I am telling you is that if they create a privacy service where you can save your pictures or other days that you want to stay private nothing is stopping them from doing the same thing they are doing now. We need to act now
-
Nicky Santoro (@burner8787) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Take the phone away from the kids if they’re not trustworthy. Problem solved.
-
Abhishek Puri (@anubandhsutra) reported@durov Thats what @signalapp also says. "Leave the market". Have they left any market? No. Zilch. Nada. Zero. When the SIM binding rules in India were made mandatory (now extended till December this year), was there any blog post? Zilch. Nada. Was there any mention from your end too? Zilch. Nada. Nyet. Realistically speaking- will it make an impact beyond "moralistic statements"? Important to note: All governments will want a bit of a control. Name calling (by a person of your stature) won't help.

Grey Observer (@JohnAsser65014) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Help the parents have and use tools, don't design clunky sector wide failures.

iknowatchamacallit (@justichidi) reported@theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks If your child is seeing porn on your phone, fix your life. If your child is seeing porn on their device, you're failing your child.
-
MG (@taradasana) reported@signalapp @404mediaco And what have you done to fix careless whisper? @signalapp
-
Chromatic Aberration (@agaefendi_) reported@Tech_Temp_ @signalapp Surely tech people will find a way and create privacy focused content like we always did. You’re missing my point. I’m saying for everyday people and mainstream devices being scanned for the huge problem of children trafficking. I’ve reported a few cases of such on this app even.
-
Jason Kling (@cloudnine1080) reported@signalapp 0 trust is the way. Demons can slip in and out of souls and can potentially cause a number of issues. We should “try” to give people cyber security on their devices with select individuals granted scanning access with AI tools.
-
Sebastian Buzdugan (@sebuzdugan) reported@signalapp project folders help, but unread semantics get messy once muted chats are included
-
@beatrizelenaflorez (@beatrizelenaf) reported@signalapp We kindly request a language translator for the application. If it's not too much trouble, thank you.
-
shhh (@Truthseekerrz) reported@Mandy03567961 @signalapp 😔 they better not shut it down I hope they stand there ground
-
هدوء قلب (@NewQuietY) reported@signalapp When creating a new account on a different phone, the verification code does not arrive. I don't know why. Please solve this problem.
-
ChilizHODL⚡️ (@ChillizHODL) reported@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.
-
Megan Sweet (@MNMegan) reported@PressSec Is @POTUS going to address the @signalapp chat with Israelis laughing about our service members dying for them? 😡😡👀
-
B Invest HQ (@BInvestHQ) reported@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 controlled through the data centres. It will not safeguard children it's another population control measure.
-
Dustin (BusySignal-KE2EFX) (@DustinFinn) reportedOMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.
-
ⓣⓔⓝ 🅞🅗 ⓣⓞⓞ (@tenohtoo) reported@Dinosn Other apps have a similar problem. Signal leaks chats through task switcher even when locked. I reported it ages ago; no response from @signalapp
-
Karl (@fakecarl_) reported@RichAzzopardi @NYCMayor @signalapp If it leads to a more effective dissemination of information among the populace, I see zero issue with this. But keep trying Rich, maybe one day you’ll be able to justify all the terrible crap you pumped out during the campaign. Probably not.
-
Z (@N2K4A8) reported@enteio its great to see to companies being honest, i dont think they had any strong encryption in the first place but its sad that everything out there have some issues like slow speed, ui/ux bugs, no proper business model, etc except for @signalapp , but needs number to signup
-
David Gobaud (@davidgobaud) reportedis AWS or some cloud thing down...? two apps not working including @signalapp debug log support - weird
-
Bombardino Crocodillo (@io32kmd0c93j30m) reported@signalapp @404mediaco Apple could just read it from Apple Push Notification service right?
