@signalapp @moxie There are some funny pictures and gestures in animated gif files in the signal program. There is a problem with these animated gifs. The content of the gifs is in a state of harm to morality It is your responsibility for people to send such pictures to each other.

@CatgirlDev @mibauts @signalapp How bout use your phone as an actual phone for once & move on with those first world problems.

@xeni @signalapp @wokyleeks Let's be clear, the distrust some people have is that the NSA chose something that they could crack using some extremely clever (but unknown) tricks. If that were true, making a few ad hoc implementation changes, essentially blind, is unlikely to help.

@My2Gwei @signalapp Btc would be good. Eth is a broken scam.

@timkindberg @signalapp @WhatsApp whatsapp is also encrypted, only issue being they store the keys and they sell your meta data to 3rd party

My one issue with @signalapp is that your identity is still ~ your phone number. Would be far cooler if you could instantiate a new one for every contact (sort of like a fresh Bitcoin address). Scanning a QR code to add people makes this not actually painful.

@signalapp An outage of 24 hours is completely reasonable given the circumstances, however anything more than that can impact your current growth rate. @WhatsApp has used your technical issue to push back their data sharing plan by 3 months!

@ZenRiots @sunny051488 @signalapp Signal uses AWS. Why wouldn’t they be secure? Plenty of platforms use Google Cloud & AWS and have no problems with security.

@signalapp is the service outage still ongoing? Is there actions that need to be executed at the user end?

@gojimmypi @DecaireRobert @signalapp The problem is the flag it sets can be ignored- it's just a suggestion.

It looks like @signalapp has been down for 24 hours now. Which could be a good thing. This is unlikely to be a load issue after so long.

@joanmuc @signalapp But unfortunately when I denied it automatically took as default app. I don't know is it technical issue or manual issue?

People switching to @signalapp in droves to avoid these new @WhatsApp privacy changes. Edward Snowden uses signal so that's a ringing endorsement. If Julian Assange is unveiled as a signal user, whatsapp may have a problem on it's hands!

Hey @signalapp , do you have any intention of ever restoring service or are you just gone now?

@gavinmcmahonco @benedictevans @signalapp The TOS are a “lagging indicator”. Lawyers update TOS only *after* the business/product people decide the service offering. Interesting that there is so much (negative) scrutiny of the contractual write-up vs the actual (& new) substance of the terms.

@DanishSait , when will you release video on Conversation around @WhatsApp privacy policy and @signalapp outage? That's the latest after Tesla's Bengaluru R&D Centre.

@signalapp Nobody ever made a system to gain 40+ million users in a few weeks or days without having issues. See it as something positive, more people start to worry about privacy and because of that people are using WhatsApp alternatives. Such as signal. :) Take your time

@signalapp Any ETA on the fix ? It is close to 24 hours since services are down..

@TheTechSpace @signalapp Yes, I know. I don't think that is the problem though. I had Signal on my previous phone 1-2 years ago but didn't bother reinstalling it because of this, & I see it's still happening.
