(Quote) Use a burner then, its not expensive nor insecure. Depends on where you live, you may even get a SIM card and use it without KYC, anon sim card.

(Quote) I have not received any spam personally.

Small update, usernames have been pushed to "live" version like 2 weeks ago now, it should be integrated well. https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/releases/tag/v7.0.0

Back in stock 🤑 My VPS works just fine, 0 issues with it so far.

(Quote) Their "Global" division with a company in UK, but yeah, they are a Russian company. Also I'm pretty sure DMCA is ignored on these vps too, Aeza is a known "bulletproof" provider, with several "shell" asn's. Sho…

(Quote) For context, @SirFoxy leaked private conversation between him and fran in attempt to cause damage to Fran/BuyVM for personal reasons, it was a personal attack. And then it backfired, (Quote) From OGF.

(Quote) Use crypto :) You can get it locally and without KYC on https://agoradesk.com/ If you go with Monero, https://featherwallet.org/ (desktop), https://cakewallet.com/ (mobile)

(Quote) OpenAI tells the opposite, and I don't trust "journalists" with shit. (Quote) How come the whole "web" has worked like that since forever? How do you imagine Google, Bing, Yandex,.. works? I don't see any "copyright…

(Quote) Why would they use a company in The Netherlands then?

Looks very modern and professional, thanks for sharing. Visually, and on first look of features in panel, it appears to be the best open source panel I looked at so far. I haven't looked at the codebase yet or specifics, but looks very promising. W…

(Quote) Lmao, all of that leaves too much room for interpretation, they can basically kick you at any time or for whatever they want and defame you. (Quote) I'm not sure if they are required by Belgian laws to have it in their Terms or what, but ei…

Looks like the community is more and more bloodthirsty. I understand quality control, but for that there have to be clear signs.
-
(Quote) Not really, your messages are routed by a minimum of 3 nodes(much like Tor) and stored in swarms distributed among nodes, encrypted. Attachments are stored by servers controlled by OPTF(on Hetzner I believe), and are also encrypted. (Quote)…

(Quote) Monero, or shielded Zcash or the mixed version of Dash. They support them all.

(Quote) For a phone number that can be used for Signal, then you set 2FA(or whatever they call it) so someone cannot recover your account if they get the same number somehow, and that's about it. I've been doing it like that on Telegram for ages.
-
(Quote) I'm an early adopter and a friend of developers(now ex-developers) of Session, Oxen and Lokinet. I do not recommend usage of any of their products. They have officially sold out to feds, they are not a privacy-coin anymore instead they are a…

(Quote) It costs a whole $0.06 to have an "anonymous" Signal account. (Image) Again, it all depends on your threat model. Signal was supposed to be normie friendly, and it is. I would not trust for anonymous communication, I trust it wit…

(Quote) It all depends on your threat model. Good fucking luck getting your friends and family to install a XMPP client with OMEMO and teach them how federation works. I treat Signal as less aids Whatsapp alternative, nothing more than that. Also r…

(Quote) Historically most of apps like this were created by Left-wing extremists or Anarchists using them to undermine the Government. It wouldn't surprise me if it was the case this time, but I'm not worried about it too much. Tor is also "pro…

(Quote) Phone numbers correspond to public keys, they are presented to the user for verification. By default you give your contacts "limited" trust, and have to check qr/public key using another form of communication to be 100% sure you ar…

(Quote) Because their own encrypted app, Threema is a requirement and is contracted for this purpose. At their place I would support a local company too.
-
(Quote) Except its not true. Brian Acton is a president of Signal non-profit, since 2018. Signal new CEO is Meredith Whittaker.
-
(Quote) I trust it enough to use with close friends and family. I wouldn't trust it in scenarios where anonymity is a requirement, I value its security and not privacy/anonymity.
-
(Quote) It proves absolutely nothing in terms of your "data" claim.
-
(Quote) Their server is open source: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server You can use an anonymous eSim such as https://silent.link/ Here is what feds receive from Signal when they subpoena your data: https://signal.org/bigbrother/santaclara/…

(Quote) So much for Nordics.

(Quote) Both don't, due to client side encryption/decryption requirement. Proton offers a "bridge" which is a proxy running on your desktop allowing you to connect to your local client, but its not cross platform and isn't an ideal solutio…

(Quote) Not much better security/privacy wise than ones above, but should be good for most people. Its reliable and at least promises to not sell your customer data(only thing I would believe out of all their marketing, they have other subscription-…

Arch + i3wm, will go back to Debian soon as I went with Arch only because Debian 11 didn't support my hardware, 12 does. I do not recommend Arch, unless you want to fix your system for a living. I prefer something that can be used for work, not to w…
