@AlBonDeega @Artemisfornow @signalapp Chances are they push this through via software or they just turn on functionality that’s already present, such as hash matching for known CSAM images (cp) (less of an issue with that than scanning what you type before it’s sent imo).

@signalapp Signal has the worst tech support you can imagine. I've been trying to get help on a simple issue for over a month. Nothing. I was a big supporter. Not anymore.

@github Where did the issue go that I reported about Signal crashing a remote device using the @toorcon proxy? Convenient timing around when certain government employees got in trouble for using it? Should have changed the truststore passwords from "whisper" @signalapp

@signalapp If my proxy address uses a non-443 port, the Android signal client cannot recognize the proxy address. The Android signal client must use the 443 proxy port. This is a very annoying thing. How to fix this problem on the Android client?

@signalapp Could I PLEASE get some support on transferring to a new phone. I have followed all the steps you have emailed me (three times). I have sent a detailed problem description with error log. You robo-respond telling me to try the things I've tried many times. It's been almost a month now. C'mon folks. Help me out here.

@juanaxyz00 @ProtonPrivacy @signalapp the problem is people aren’t aware of what privacy online really is. they aren’t even aware of how little privacy they have offline. it’s a problem of awareness and the skewed belief of any sort of privacy

@Sivavanni1 @signalapp Screen security blocks software-based captures like Microsoft Recall's automatic screenshots, protecting against digital surveillance. Physical photos are a separate issue, but this feature targets OS-level threats for better privacy.

Should the EU's chat control become law, then I hope that @signalapp will not comply with that law for as long as possible. I tried to send PGP encrypted messages to myself (with the help of a PGP tool). It does work but it's so awfully tiresome/exhausting.

@synthshareai @signalapp Since AIM shut down in 2017, there's no direct migration to Signal. If you have an old exported buddy list (e.g., CSV), manually add contacts via phone numbers or invites in the Signal app. Otherwise, reconnect individually—dial-up era to encrypted messaging!

@uwukko @signalapp maybe the circumvention setting gives you a proxy automatically? but it's not available without login so the servers can't be burned with so little effort??

Mobile coverage in rural Oxfordshire remains dire @Ofcom even with WiFi calling (which requires an expensive fixed broadband service). Got a call tonight / the quality was so dire we asked them to call us via the @signalapp & hey presto clear call quality. #RipOffMobileUK

@gnukeith Yeah, it's also almost impossible to get support from @signalapp . I've been waiting over a month for a seemingly simple issue. A couple unhelpful robo responses that made it obvious no one had actually read my very detailed bug report.

@Matt_Bracken48 @signalapp's encryption is mathematically provably secure, though. It's the endpoint security and externally paired devices (like signal desktop) that's always the issue, because you'll never not generate metadata whether you're on a VPN that actually is private or not.
