  @signalapp The problem I have with all this **** is, it will never be used for "justice". It will only ever be used for "control". They proved it to us with the lock-downs. "YOU" got tackled, and abused by cops for trying to walk on the beach, "THEY" got to dine at restaurants,without masks

  Firebase Phone Number Verification going GA matters far beyond developer convenience. In countries like #Iran, where SMS verification codes are often blocked or unreliable, SMS-less phone verification could help users register for secure apps — if adopted by apps like @signalapp.

  @topicswithatee @signalapp Help the parents have and use tools, don't design clunky sector wide failures.

  And now @RadarChat brings that same freedom to Signal replacing what is wrong with hile keeping what is good. Is it too much to ask @vikrantnyc to fix @signalapp 's backup problem? (n/n)

  @signalapp Handing over login credentials to “support” is an intelligence test at this point.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks its not hard to lock down a phone to the most basic of functions are you that retarded?

  @NivalCat @BrendanEich @signalapp I find it a bigger problem that they still require a phone to run. Cannot install on a PC (Signal Desktop still requires a phone to be running and proxy messages to it).

  @Pandora_Delaney @MichaelAlleged @signalapp I know a few Signal devs you can ****.. but I don't think it will fix this issue... Might still be fun though.

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks Safeguard the women and children by mass deporting migrants. Islam is the problem

  @Mandy03567961 @signalapp 😔 they better not shut it down I hope they stand there ground

  @LabDRN @signalapp A better way to do this is to only switch the service on for childs' phones. The parents do that when they set up the phone. No dig ID needed.

  @signalapp What is the issue with the sms in pakistan? When trying to create account without vpn it always tell that connect to internet, when used vpn it says we can not send sms, try in several hours

  @femalepencil Because it’s owned by @Meta which is a terrible company - try @signalapp

  @signalapp It's always worth asking whether a loss of privacy today will actually solve the problem it's supposed to solve tomorrow.

• 
  常隆威 (@ChangW30200) reported 28 minutes ago

  @signalapp I believe that to solve this problem, we must learn from the software Session/SimpleX and remove the real-name registration requirement for phone numbers. This would render any hacking efforts futile.

  Giving Friday: 1. Choose one "free" tool you use from @signalapp to VLC 2. Donate even $5 (every donation matters). 3. Help those teams stay free.

  @signalapp phishing thrives in the gap between encrypted transport and unverified identity. the hardest privacy problem isn't the message content, it's proving who sent it

  T◎LA {313} (@TolaCrypt) reported 33 minutes ago

  first, 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

  @Dinosn Other apps have a similar problem. Signal leaks chats through task switcher even when locked. I reported it ages ago; no response from @signalapp

• 
  UnTzY 🚶🏻 (@untzy) reported 36 minutes ago

  @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.

  @sombradosul @signalapp @depressivehacks While true, it’s best to have a proposal to the problem Else, you are just another complainer on the Internet

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks If your child is seeing porn on your phone, fix your life. If your child is seeing porn on their device, you're failing your child.

  @signalapp Signal is letting Romanian scammers use my account to steal money off Irish people… I reported the issue to them over a month ago and the company refuses to look into it

• 
  B Invest HQ (@BInvestHQ) reported 47 minutes ago

  @signalapp Used fraudulently this software could scan bank accounts & other financial & data sensitive ones like passwords. This is not the way to control the problem and should be controlled through the data centres. It will not safeguard children it's another population control measure.

  @signalapp @signalapp please keep pushing against government dystopia in the UK and EU. Please keep informing the public of harmful policy decisions from government like this. Please pull your services from any dystopian jurisdiction to help shed light on the issue Please do not capitulate

  @chat If this meant to compete with @signalapp the open-source the whole thing; otherwise it’s hard to the see the point… can you help us to see the point?

  @MichaelAlleged @signalapp Unbelievable. Who do I have to **** at Signal to fix this?
