Have to be lazy as **** useless trash if want the govt nosing around pretending watching ur kids for you. Shuting down the kids ability to think for them selfs growing the sheep
-
Russell Polo (@RussellPolo) reported@signalapp How about banning names like that? Won't fix it, makes it harder.
-
Marcin Nolte 🇵🇱🇩🇪🇺🇸 (@NolteIT) reported@signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.
-
Götz von Berlichingen #FBPE (@georgebernhard) reported@The_Propapanda @signalapp I'm sure that if you can provide an exhaustive list of all names that might be used in phishing campaigns, signal can block them... That is a weak spot, but it's hard to fix.
-
UnTzY 🚶🏻 (@untzy) reported@signalapp I know it's not a thing, because you seem like normal people with morals. But it would be terrible if you happened to have a data breach that showed all the private chats our government is having.
-
BrendanEich (@BrendanEich) reported@NivalCat @signalapp Signal has always (since TextSecure) used phone number as primary user identifier — that’s not the issue.
-
Foxy⚔️ (@Dancinfoxy) reported@signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
-
Mark12-17 ✝️🇮🇱 🇺🇸 (@Mark1217000) reported@signalapp time for global platforms like youre to stand up and refuse these scumbags , if all do that then they will be forced to back down else they will go into the dark ages
-
Bomboriver (@bomboriver) reported@smspoolnet @callebtc @signalapp instead of apologising fix the system with better security
-
thunder (@thunder2585) reported@Shahinlooo Families in Iran cannot even confirm whether their loved ones are safe. This blackout is dangerous. Help people of Iran by sending Starlink🆘🆘 @Meta @Signalapp #IranMassacre #DigitalBlackoutIran #KingRezaPahlavi
-
Stephen Gary (@missyNelso69913) reported@signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.
-
T◎LA {313} (@TolaCrypt) reportedfirst, messages aren't e2e encrypted. secondly, reduces the quality of pics/ videos being sent or uploaded on status. there’s a reason those contacts are not saved to my phone fgs, @WhatsApp fix up. a dumb update tbh, it’s high time to pivot to @signalapp
-
anthonychopra (@anthonychopra) reported@signalapp @404mediaco Did they even show proof or can someone see if Apple did fix it or did they lie about the fix too
-
Jacob | Five Eye Tea (@FiveEyeTea) reported@alcipone @signalapp @NicoleGrajewski I'm curious what makes you "say hmm" about it? This story here is virtually identical to every other case of an alleged "Signal hack": it always boils down to user error or an unsafe modification of the code (as was the case with the previous government-related "Signal hack").
-
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.
-
शाश्वोत ढुंगाना🇳🇵☭ (@ShaswotNepal) reported@signalapp @404mediaco SMS Provider is down for Nepal. i am unable to log in to new device. fix it ASAP.
-
Santiago Pliego (@SantiagoPliego) reportedTIL if your iPhone storage is almost full, Signal bricks itself. Make your backups, folks. (Also, @signalapp please fix!)
-
ENIGMA 🦍 (@MelvinDaEnigma) reported@signalapp I’m waiting on a verification code that never comes. Any help?
-
Dom (@dom_de_la_rose) reported@theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks its not hard to lock down a phone to the most basic of functions are you that retarded?
-
GALF🇺🇦 I only simp for NAFO (@GalfPlays) reported@theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks "we need to shoot all dogs to safeguard children from dog attacks" - that's stupid it won't help "What do you suggest then????" This is you. Wanna shoot all dogs?
-
Chris Harger (@mastasnake176) reported@VictoriaCFontan @signalapp Stop giving strangers your login.
-
DarthTrader (@DarthTraderzzz) reported@theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Death sentence for ****** would help.
-
XLERB (@XLERBonX) reported@signalapp Government LOVES to solve problems. That's why they're there, to solve problems. (I guess sarcasm still doesn't work on the internet.)
-
Nasser (@nasser_kari) reportedI've enjoyed using @signalapp for a long time but this week I've tried hard to open it on my Windows laptop and each time am getting this error popup. Even after downloading it via the browser and Microsoft Store, the results are the same. Please @signalapp team, tell us what's going on with the Signal we all love.
-
Erik Vallart (@erikvallart) reported@signalapp @mer__edith I explain the why this is a problem in my definitive case against mass surveillance essay.
-
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)
-
S.A.P (@SAP127001) reported@yrschrade @orithellama @signalapp You need more than that. It’s not the encryption that’s the problem with Signal, it’s the pre exposed mobile number and by extension home address
-
FAFO (@areyoukay) reported@topicswithatee @signalapp Stop giving kids smart phones Problem solved It’s on the lazy *** parents
-
name (@seqnzes) reported@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.
-
calle (@callebtc) reportedPSA: purchased a phone number for @signalapp registration at @smspoolnet but the number got re-sold to a scammer else after 3 months. that person took over the signal account. super dangerous. terrible service guarantee by smspool and dangerous auth practice by signal . basically sim swapping without the social engineering. not your phone network, not your number (you can't own a mobile number).
