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

  @NetworkChuck @WhatsApp If you want to stay as secure as possible, you don't use WhatsApp. @signalapp is a far better alternative and is not run by a company with a terrible track record violating privacy laws and spying on people.

  @signalvoyager @signalapp What's the mistake? Enabling notifications? This is not isolated to Signal. If it were then we'd have a problem. Every single app's notifications gets saved in a place and manner that is outside that app's control. There's no opt out. That is why Apple fixed it.

  @chriskalos_xyz @signalapp They still have servers. They just don't store unencrypted messages or encryption keys on them. Also, they are Amazon's servers that are down. Everything that uses AWS is affected.

  @signalapp signal view once on iOS is useless since it allows receipt to take screenshots. Fix it plz.

  @aaron0v @signalapp Simple, Signal controls your keys, and the app delivery lifecycle. Yes, it is OS, and anyone can compile and run it. For now. They systematically shut down any popular alternate builds. And they obfuscate the compiled code. You have to use their servers, so at any point they can change the underlying behavior by pushing and update. And the simple fact, if they can recover your key for you, you have no guarantee they can't recover your key for themselves. Matrix allows any client. You control your key. No recovery. If you lose your key, you lose access to all your old messages.

  @signalapp Why signal signups are not working in Pakistan? We tried on multiple devices and every time there is a network issue error.

  i think @signalapp is/was down for a bit?

  @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.

  @dedelaugesen @signalapp no that's the app trying to help you remember your pin through spaced repetition. if that gets annoying pretty sure you could turn it off in settings the recent phishing campaigns are different to what you mention

  Apple kind of fixed the @signalapp notification cache issue. Admitted a notification log issue, yet the iOS apps still require deleting to remove cache.

  @TechloreInc @signalapp should fix this by only notifying about a received message and sender without preview of its content

• 
  Nick Cairns (@simpin4pepe) reported 52 minutes ago

  @signalapp This is literally as old as dial up. I may or may not have done it way back when AOL was a pay per hour service. Send out 3000 messages all at once and have chat log turned on. Account would get nuked in 5 min, go to the log and there would be five more accounts.

  @signalapp Two factor authentication would fix this. Maybe even three factor.
