Privacy isn't suspicious. It's a human right.

A researcher has shown how they zero-click exposed user's locations of most messaging apps, including Signal and Twitter/X. Here's what you need to know 🧵 First, this issue exploited Cloudflare's CDN. An attacker only needs to send an image in order to obtain a very coarse location based on delivery timing of the message. This requires no involvement from the victim, so it's 0-click. Cloudflare has since fixed the issue.

Which privacy and/or security project could you not live without? Tag them and show some love ⬇️

Just to speak to my previous post...I think this is the first-ever Proton product where they're directly stating privacy is *not* a good enough reason to use more privacy-respecting technologies. If the mission is privacy, this is not it. I really hope Monero is considered.

You do NOT need technical experience to contribute to FOSS. Many projects need translations, documentation, & other things that have nothing to do with code. Reach out to your favorite projects to get involved!

New video! About a year ago Proton Pass was released and I was fairly critical. But after a year of development it's hard for me to deny it's become quite an outstanding option I'll be migrating to from KeePass.
