@Mer__edith on a different note: Does @signalapp plan to actually increase it's own #privacy and #security by not demanding #PII like a #PhoneNumber, not mandating the garbage #app to have #CameraAccess (which doesn't work on devices without a camera!) and actually #decentralizing onto @torproject / #Tor, mandating real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of all the keys as well as removing the #Shitcoin that is #MobileCoin from it?
And it's not as if I didn't try it out!
My [reservations](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114234551915193036) and [criticism](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114862595629371002) re: #Signal are not just valid, but the reality is *even worse than I thought*:
- The fact that @[email protected] requires not only their shitty #Android #App, and a #PhoneNumber but literally won't allow people to use their shitty #Desktop-App unless they have an Android device with a camera pointed at it makes it utterly unuseable for certain users *who don't have a fucking #camera in their Android*…
Seriously, do they expect folks to deal with that shit?
- It's already worse in terms of #UX than #telegram and #discord and that too makes #XMPP+#OMEMO clients like @[email protected] / #monoclesChat & @[email protected] / #gajim easier and faster to onboard #TechIlliterates onto.
- Whichever asshole decided that a *replacement for #SMS* should mandate #PII like a #PhoneNumber & not be natively cross-platform should be banned from doing any #tech in their life. Trying to circumvent this shit and helping folks with it makes me so fucking angry that I'm now explicitly refusing to support it!
FIX THAT SHIT, @[email protected], and if it means you need to kick some devs in their crouch then consider this a necessary *"investment"*…

The magic of applying a full 3D filter to our vision on Quest is now possible thanks to camera access! I managed to make every eye see just the stream of its respective passthrough camera, and applying a shader filter on both streams, I can modify my vision while retaining the depth effect of objects!
In this short video you see how I feel with pixelated vision, but in the full Youtube video (https://lnkd.in/d6dMj474) you can see also other filters and some hints on how I made it (special thanks to Uralstech Udayshankar R for his great plugin, the link is in the description of the Youtube video).
I'm open to make a tutorial if many people are interested. Of course, this is just an experiment: passthrough has a high latency, so this is not viable for commercial products.
Let me know what you think about it!
