Christopher Lee?

Just because you struggle to have a normal relationship, doesnt mean we all can’t.

And nzb360

Also if anyone else wrote it, there would be so much savaging of weasel words.

They brag that they don’t retain this data, so when governments request historical data they don’t have it.

They don’t say that they don’t provide it for anyone else to retain, so if they are given the to and from to process the message, and provide this to the CIA to retain then all of this security would be useless but would also fulfill all of the claims here.

No.

We have been exploring techniques to further reduce the amount of information that is accessible to the service, and the latest beta release includes changes designed to move Signal incrementally closer to the goal of hiding another piece of metadata: who is messaging whom.

They haven’t hidden it yet. It’s a goal.

They are referring to message metadata.

Even if they don’t show the content of messages, if they can show that phone number A is sending messages and getting replies to number B then that’s all the government needs.

https://signal.org/legal/

For the purpose of operating our Services, you agree to our data practices as described in our Privacy Policy, as well as the transfer of your encrypted information and metadata to the United States and other countries where we have or use facilities, service providers or partners.

They store metadata, which is distinct from encrypted data.

Are you saying sealed sender is a lie?

https://signal.org/blog/sealed-sender/

When you send a traditional piece of physical mail, the outside of the package typically includes the address of both the sender and the recipient. The same basic components are present in a Signal message. The service can’t “see into” the encrypted package contents, but it uses the information written on the outside of the package to facilitate asynchronous message delivery between users.

They have a list of encrypted messages, who it’s from and who it’s to, based upon the sealed sender description. If you are using phone numbers then you are not anonymous, and a TLA agency can search known bad numbers even if Signal does not try to build that graph.

Do either of them work on the Steam Deck yet?

Last time I tried, last year I think, I couldn’t get the controller to work correctly.

Completely agree, I was trying to avoid the “well actually” response.

I’ve had a number of items get held by FedEx (or whoever) because of import duties over the years and I’ve had to pay the delivery company to get it released.

This is a well worn path, and kudos to this one to warn you that new tarrifs are in place, the customer would be subject to them, and giving them an option to decline it.

Import duties are not always part of the agreement.

They didn’t change the rules, there is now a charge by the government on it getting delivered, not by the company.

The only solution is mainline support.

If it’s not mainline then there isn’t effective support.

Ha, you think that the backups even arrive to replace/repair? They’ll break down in transit!

That would be amazing. Cybertruck cops? They’ll be letting everyone go when the trucks breaks down.

Thats fine if it works for you.

My comment on all of this was purely that Bitwarden password was a single point of failure. Now we can shift that single point of failure somewhere else!

I’m not sure what the solution is.

Find a new single point of failure?

Caring?

And we have that too.

We are talking about standard sockets, they all have off switches on the socket.

You have a switch for your electrical sockets by your door? What a weird place to put them all.

We have our light switches by the door. Much more useful.

Go on, I dare you 🤣

“British” isn’t a thing?

Not really, no.

A Scott wouldn’t because it would associate them with England, a Welshman wouldn’t, because it would associate them with England.

And I wouldn’t, because someone might think I’m Welsh or Scottish. 🤷
