  @signalapp @mer__edith I explain the why this is a problem in my definitive case against mass surveillance essay.

  @signalapp When creating a new account on a different phone, the verification code does not arrive. I don't know why. Please solve this problem.

  @signalapp @404mediaco Did they even show proof or can someone see if Apple did fix it or did they lie about the fix too

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

  SignalVoyager (@signalvoyager) reported 25 minutes ago

  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)

  @topicswithatee @signalapp Think for a bit. Age verification? Ok, no big problem, don’t like it, but acceptable. Now… how do you think you detect unsafe content ***? Tech magic? Smartphone witch? Every byte of your mobile phone must go to some server, get unencrypted and scanned. You fine with this?

  Tim (@timderoode) reported 27 minutes ago

  @durov @durov the early OTF grants (2013-2016) for @signalapp are publicly documented. This might create a perception issue for its independence but doesn’t prove active/ongoing US gov backing or influence. Or you have other information?

  @signalapp @404mediaco SMS Provider is down for Nepal. i am unable to log in to new device. fix it ASAP.

  @WhatsApp @signalapp @X amongst many others been shut down around us in the UK how is this ok that this is allowed we’re been run out by the one person that promised us the best and is given us hell ! On earth how is this ok ? There’s no humanity there is no clear leader to lead!

  @yegortk @signalapp No it's a simple problem we want privacy

• 
  常隆威 (@ChangW30200) reported 32 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.

  @AeldorThalion @Viber @signalapp Welp. The problem is that most of my contacts are either on fb (which I don't have anymore) or Viber. I can't just randomly tell everyone to go into signal or anything, that's usually the main issue, not whether *I* can switch. I can. My network doesn't switch🫠.

  Craig Stevens (@craig100) reported 38 minutes ago

  @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.

  Götz von Berlichingen #FBPE (@georgebernhard) reported 39 minutes ago

  @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.

  @ProtonPrivacy My main issue with @signalapp is I cannot use the same account on more than one smartphone

• 
  Dr Bezuban Bezgul (@drbezuban) reported 41 minutes ago

  Hello @signalapp what is update about ur privacy breach baby? What is issue of Iphone Signal Notification Data Disclosure??

• 
  Ian Bradbury (@bradbury2010) reported 43 minutes ago

  @PaulSmithDM @signalapp I thought "crap parents are so terrified of" might have been a clue that I agree with you completely. The missing tone of voice makes it harder though. I regard this "ooh the kiddies" as utterly despicable. The problem now is to find a party that won't do it.

  Note to @signalapp @ProtonMail Can gov just spent years trying everything to attack non compliance of canna bis Seeking to shut down web sites, attack landlords with charges, shut down payment services, charge employees, take vehicles use concrete to block doors, threat letters

  Adarsh (@heyadarsha) reported 49 minutes ago

  @kanavtwt Problem is not with @signalapp. They just seem to be caught in the OS cross-fire.

  Sebastian Buzdugan (@sebuzdugan) reported 51 minutes ago

  @signalapp no repro matters but listed checked versions would help teams close noisy incident queues

• 
  Nicky Santoro (@burner8787) reported 52 minutes ago

  @topicswithatee @signalapp Take the phone away from the kids if they’re not trustworthy. Problem solved.

  Durango (@Durango4571) reported 53 minutes ago

  @signalapp Instead of repealing the law that throws people in jail over mean words on the internet, which is clearly ridiculous, they're going to double down? It's like watching 1984 play out in real life.

• 
  Tony Losego (@Titalus) reported 54 minutes ago

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

• 
  Tristan 🦦 (@TristandeAlwis) reported 55 minutes ago

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

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

• 
  Idea Catalogue (@idea_catalogue) reported 56 minutes ago

  @theweb3jess @signalapp @depressivehacks for instance someone could mail you pics you don't want, also anonymously. but i don't call for the post office to censor everyone's mail. you can choose not to open the mail from unsolicited senders. or pay a service to filter your mail and not forward ones screened for ******

  Palaash Atri (@palaashatri) reported 56 minutes ago

  @bramh0sWali People can literally just use @signalapp instead. This is an idiotic ban for starters. Instead of fixing the problem they're just shooting the Messenger, literally.

  @privacylawyer @signalapp apple should just shut down their iclouds

  megabyte0x.eth (@megabyte0x) reported 56 minutes ago

  @TomZarebczan @signalapp @RadarChat The problem is not that. the problem is onboarding others. There's no point for me being there without anyone else I know, and I have been having a quite hard time to onboard people to Signal already :)

  Bruno (@BrunoZP) reported 57 minutes ago

  @signalapp Agreed — that’s just dumb. They’re creating new issues instead of fixing the one.
