Uhm… I think I’m talking to someone online who might be impersonating someone else.
I have no solid proof… but I’m pretty sure.
Not sure what I should do…

Just went live in VRChat with zero plan, letting chat decide what happens next - it's already getting wild because chat just sent me on a crazy scavenger hunt.

Friends don’t let friends use messaging platforms that aren’t Signal. Especially not random third-rate platforms (or Telegram).

Remind the people in your circles who aren’t tech savvy. Technology can be hard if you don’t know it well. Heck, it’s hard if you do.

A Secure Chat App’s Encryption Is So Bad It Is ‘Meaningless’

TeleGuard is an app downloaded more a million times that markets itself as a secure way to chat. The app uploads users’ private keys to the company’s server, and makes decryption of messages trivial.

Nekogram, fork of the Open Source messaging app Telegram used by journalists and privacy activists, had just been discovered to include spyware. The malicious code sent all user's private phone numbers to the developer, a Chinese man nicknamed NekoWorkshop (alias tehcneko). The devteam publicly admitted the presence of the spyware code, then started reacting violently against the userbase.

A Secure #Chat App’s #Encryption Is So Bad It Is ‘Meaningless’

TeleGuard, an app that markets itself as a secure, end-to-end encrypted messaging platform …implements its encryption so poorly that an attacker can trivially access a user’s private key & decrypt their messages,…#TeleGuard also uploads users’ private keys to a company server, … could decrypt its users’ messages, & the key can also at least partially be derived from simply intercepting a user’s traffic
