    @signalapp a number of my contacts are not getting notifications of my signal messages. One on Android and others on iphone. Been like this for at least a year. Please fix.

    @VictoriaCFontan @signalapp Social Engineering exists because USERS are the weakest point in security. Fix the users, fix yourself.

    @chriskalos_xyz @signalapp They still have servers. They just don't store unencrypted messages or encryption keys on them. Also, they are Amazon's servers that are down. Everything that uses AWS is affected.

    @DrewHyatt8 @signalapp No way… The NSA would not have something this secure the algorithm cannot be broken no matter what… the guy who invented this form of encryption decided to make signal a foundation nonprofit… because it was better for the greater good of humanity than privatizing it… that’s how special it is And you know it’s true when entire governments can’t break the code… the only way they can get signals is by screenshots, but actually deciphering the encryption code. Nope, impossible for many reasons not even the NSA.

    @mert @signalapp If you can't solve the problem of federation with as much metadata protection as Signal (this is the challenge), and have a solid plan to rapidly reach feature parity with as much vetting and audits as Signal, it's not worth it.

    @marchofer @signalapp Not so fast. There's a Signal issue here.

    @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

    @signalapp Is Signal down right now?

    @signalapp no one else having issues sending from the windows app? all my recent inbound messages come through, but sending just has a constant circle

  • PatrickBDi
    Patrick Di (@PatrickBDi) reported

    @signalapp The server is currently down?

  • aleksisjoberg
    Aleksi Sjöberg (@aleksisjoberg) reported

    @nullc0py @signalapp @404mediaco Of course that _could_ be a feature, but: - many receiving such messages would think something is broken - the recipient must have control of their own device's behavior over the sender - the real risk is the human at the other end most of the time

  • swenlei56
    swenlei (@swenlei56) reported

    @dedelaugesen @signalapp no that's the app trying to help you remember your pin through spaced repetition. if that gets annoying pretty sure you could turn it off in settings the recent phishing campaigns are different to what you mention

    @dubeyamitabh @signalapp hmm, that is everyone switches, problem is most won't, so stuck to same old!

    @JustNews_tg @signalapp Technology cannot fix human error. All the encryption in the world won't save you from yourself.

    Apparently @signalapp is down.

  • SAP127001

    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.

    @gg8866401 @signalapp A proper execution would fix all of this.

  • IvanJaros
    🇸🇰 Ivan Jaros (@IvanJaros) reported

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

  • TheEyelessOwl
    Nothingness (@TheEyelessOwl) reported

    @signalapp is the app down or something, things were fine for days now me messages take forever to go through, but even when they become two circles with a checkmark they never fill anymore and I get no responses???

  • CisoDiagonal

    @0CyberWarrior0 @signalapp I never had that issue, it asked for it once a month orso. Untill last/this week.

    @FareedZakaria @mer__edith @signalapp AI game is just beginning. It will reach Nash’s equilibrium when its exploitation will hurt not just the masses but also the corporations. It could happen because people have no money to buy stuff, or there are drastic errors in algorithms (AI is approximation). But it will.

    @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

    An organized insurrection is taking place on @signalapp DOJ must shut down that app. @AGPamBondi

  • wonderwomancode
    Angela Steffens (she/her) (@wonderwomancode) reported

    @JasonCoombsCEO @mer__edith @signalapp You and I will never see eye to eye. You can watch a video of a guy trying to help a woman shoved over by thugs dressed like law enforcement who are massively untrained for the task at hand and then being shot in the back after he was disarmed and just say well stay at home. Seriously you are the problem.

    @0hour1 @DaleSulliv94781 Good! @signalapp needs to do the same or they should be shut down completely.

    @signalapp This is literally as old as dial up. I may or may not have done it way back when AOL was a pay per hour service. Send out 3000 messages all at once and have chat log turned on. Account would get nuked in 5 min, go to the log and there would be five more accounts.
