    @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.

    @camhigby @signalapp These people are violating the law. You should shut down this group chat so that they cannot coordinate to violate the law.

    @signalapp Rule of the internet: If someone asks for your verification code, they’re trying to steal your account. No legit service will ever ask for it. Stay sharp.

    @VictoriaCFontan @signalapp Social Engineering exists because USERS are the weakest point in security. Fix the users, fix yourself.

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

    @botzero_net @theonejvo @signalapp LOLZ. did they think to ask the thing if it was secure and how much trouble they were in? (no)

    @KELECHUKWU_OTF @eazytvmedia The only problem with it is that it feels too casual. People don't use it for Professional Groups. I want to mention @signalapp here. People should really consider it, over WhatsApp.

    @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).

    @YAJames10 @_spiriituaL @signalapp Signal is a free messaging app focused on privacy. It's used for secure text, voice/video calls, and file sharing with end-to-end encryption, making it popular for personal and professional communication where security matters. If you're facing login issues, try checking your internet or app updates.

    @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.

    @TLDInvestors @signalapp Yup, sad to see but hopefully I can help some people avoid this fate

    @signalapp Military-grade encryption. Zero infrastructure compromises. And then: “Hi, this is Signal Support Bot, please confirm your verification code.” The math was never the problem.

    @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

    @JustNews_tg @signalapp Technology cannot fix human error. All the encryption in the world won't save you from yourself.

  • fulldecent
    William Entriken (@fulldecent) reported

    @ZainanZhou @signalapp Signal could design this product to create accounts without a phone number. It would better follow their "Privacy First" mission. But they didn't do that. And they don't publish a lengthy blog on this contradiction. This is an unforced error.
