@edsu Using the #DMA it will also be open to any third party client to enable #e2ee #interoperability with #WhatsApp and #FBMessenger (which are both designated under the DMA) — at least, for their EEA-resident users (thanks to dodgy legal interpretation by #BigTech, and as yet no pushback from the @EUCommission )
Facebook Messenger has been design to read your text, even if you disable the feature for Messenger to function as your default text manager.

You can test this yourself, by adding yourself to your phone's contact list, and sending yourself a text on your phone (not using Facebook Messenger), about painting and other DYI projects, and eventually Meta will show you ads for DYI projects.

Signal is an end-to-end encrypted messaging app. Privacy isn’t an optional mode, it’s just the way that Signal works. Every message, every call, every time.

Inspired by @adam, I'm gonna post my own #techdiet to inspire change in others. I haven't studied IT. I just like computers a lot. Please join.

I use:
- #Linux not #Windows
- #LibreELEC & #Raspi not #AppleTV/#Firestick
- #Nextcloud not #iCloud
- #Mastodon not #Twitter
- #Lemmy not #Reddit
- #Peertube not #Youtube
- #Matrix not #Discord #Whatsapp #iMessage #fbmessenger
- #Plex not #netflix
- #homeassistant not #alexa
- #PaperMC not #Realms
- #Gimp not #photoshop
- #Libreoffice not #MSOffice

My “just chats” screen/space has 6 apps on it now: #Slack, #Discord, #FBMessenger, #Messages, #WhatsApp, and #signalapp 🥴
I recently logged out of #Facebook, disabled the app on my phone, uninstalled #FBMessenger, and #Discord, and now I have the cleanest lock screen since I can't remember.
