Snowflake is a bit like a bridge so you only transport encrypted traffic to the tor network and no one knows what’s in

The only requirements is to live in a place that is not blocked from Tor (and don’t a low data plan)

Time to promote peertube

Great job, keep your motivation!

But you shouldn’t use any apple product, they are as bad for privacy as using Google’s one. Do not use an iPhone (lineageos is pretty good to use), do not use Apple’s services… And keep going

As I seen in other comment I think that the protocol is audited not really the app and servers In comparison SimpleX is audited pretty regularly

Don’t know if we should impose Signal as an alternative and forget SimpleX, in fact SimpleX is better in many other ways than Signal, the only problems are early dev problems…

In any case a service that implement E2EE is always more secure than plain data transit Even with a backdoor it’s a bit more secure than regular service

But you should be angry against the UK law cause of the probable future consequences that will impose even further surveillance for other services But people that defend it are probably mainly Apple fans. Apple is “against” to maintain a “privacy” friendly company against google and meta, but it’s bullshit

Is a self hosted VPN good for daily privacy?

Hello ChatControl 👋

Seriously again a ridiculous law… This is a pure non-sense, in theory you should be afraid, in the reality such a law wouldn’t be applied by Signal for example, and you would find alternative to these backdoored apps, such as SimpleX or others… BUT we need to fight against it, it’s a big no go for future privacy! Keep fighting and fuck these guys!

Note : Even if Tuta is concerned it wouldn’t change much… Today gmail is more than 70% of emails so in this case the privacy is equal to 0. Email is not secured at the foundation and with google in the equation, it’s hard to fight against

I think than Signal messages are mostly not backdoored but maybe all the profile picture, the name and the description are surely leaked to US gov if they found most of the servers

I don’t think so, do you think it is better to arrest 1 person and make flew away all the others users than let this guy live in peace and spy on millions others?
