  @PaulSmithDM @signalapp I thought "crap parents are so terrified of" might have been a clue that I agree with you completely. The missing tone of voice makes it harder though. I regard this "ooh the kiddies" as utterly despicable. The problem now is to find a party that won't do it.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks for instance someone could mail you pics you don't want, also anonymously. but i don't call for the post office to censor everyone's mail. you can choose not to open the mail from unsolicited senders. or pay a service to filter your mail and not forward ones screened for ******

  @topicswithatee @signalapp It has nothing to do with the kids as a parent i dont wont any govt thinking they can do better.

  @signalapp All these policies make it seem like you are guilty until proven innocent. I have no problems if individual providers choose to scan for prohibited content, but when it's pushed by the government down to the implementation-level then it's control and mass-surveillance.

  @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.

  @signalapp I thought I was contacting signal support and I was I text sometimes they do as for the signal pin. Now they ask for donations. Please Check my account and see how you can help me.

  @privacylawyer @signalapp the citizen lab link is broken. but no, it would not be amusing; my company is entirely predicated on extensive signal use, and having them remove service for Canadians would be very destructive to my organization

  @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.

  BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported 19 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!

  @signalapp If they force you, pull your service from the uk - this will send a powerful message. I wish apple would do the same thing ie shut off all iPhones - it would make people wake up and apple can afford to

  @Shahinlooo Millions of Iranians cannot contact their families or receive emergency alerts.The Islamic Republic regime of the mullahs has shut down the internet inside Iran to prevent the voice of truth of the Iranian people from reaching the world. @Cloudflare @Signalapp

  @signalapp Why am I unable to complete the set up of Signal on my new Android OnePlus 15 phone? No promised verification code to my number ever comes. I deleted my Signal account on my iPhone 11 Pro Max, reinstalled Signal on my new phone all to no avail. Any help?

  @signalapp In Tehran right now, silence is deadly. Without internet, cries for help are muted. Please, use your influence to help break the silence. Iranians will remember who stood with them #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

  @signalapp Iran's government is silencing its people by cutting off the internet, hiding atrocities from the world. You have the power to help. Will you stand with us, or betray our trust by staying silent? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  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.

  @TechloreInc @signalapp should fix this by only notifying about a received message and sender without preview of its content

  Tee Time (@topicswithatee) reported 35 minutes ago

  @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

  Why you should really think about using mainstream messengers like @signalapp Stop linking your mob number to your metadata. No phone number, no problem; @session_app and @SimpleXChat don’t have these issues.

  Nicky Santoro (@burner8787) reported 40 minutes ago

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

  Nate Long priv/acc (@literaryjoe) reported 44 minutes ago

  @signalapp, I love that you've added the recovery key, but you prevent it from being pasted in when asking to confirm. There is no way I'm typing in a 64-character recovery key with my thumbs. You're going to have to fix that, for sure.
