signal still have backdoors?
There seem to be a coordinated attack on freedom of speech an privacy all over Europe as the war drums start beating. Someone once said: When fiat fails they take you to war. Lets pray the whole edifice of fiat crumble with a whimper not a bang. View quoted note →

The dystopian merkelist marxist schit schow of Naziland just gets worse.
What's all the fuss about? So what? Let all those WhatsApp, X and Facebook idiots hand in their ID cards. I couldn't care less.

Think of it like 50% attack on freedom if they get enough people to join the control system we will be force into it
Why would you pull out of the EU market, instead of forcing them to ban you? I, for one, would like to compare them to the CCP.
I'd still be more anonymous and hidden exchanging messages in some random YouTube Minecraft video than using that government-sponsored app.
Of course. There's that old saying: "don't bite the hand that feds you". It seems signal has been receiving less government funding in the past years, might explain their sudden concern for privacy.

either that or just virtue signaling about privacy so people mistakenly use it.
How does the EU ban Signal if you dont comply? Users can download your app via the internet presumbly from anywhere.

Isn’t the whole point of Signal exactly to be useful inside these authoritarian regimes, with it’s end-to-end encryption? Then why would you pull out of the market, when the use case finally has it’s time to shine? Seems when the water gets too hot, you leave.
They just want to drive people crazy with posts like that. If anything, EVERYONE who uses Facebook, Twitter, etc. would have to confirm their identity, but that is currently completely impossible in terms of resources and technology. Every post along these lines is only intended to stir people up. If you don't want to reveal your identity, then you simply don't do it, and that's that.

Gave up? Nigga the jews and the USA took them haha
Because Meredith Whittaker likes it out of jail. True privacy messenger can not have a company behind it, just the open source code. And not require a phone number. I never used Signal, went straight to SimpleX.

Indeed. Having a company behind it is a central point of failure. It should be pure math and code. I will look into SimpleX. Still I find bending the knee at the first signs of resistance a sign of weak character. Perhaps disbanding the company behind Signal and distributing the source code everywhere would be the better answer.

Oh really? Where is he nowadays?
Nonsense. Registration registers and identity cards have been standard elsewhere for decades. Digital ID in the UK is just a kind of smartphone identity card. It has nothing to do with ID verification on the internet or for online services.
