(Note: DNS hosting at Cloudflare was working during yesterday's outage.)

The example she gave of the "SIgnalgate" (reporter from The Atlantic listening to a secure US group) is a bad example: it was not a technical failure, just an human error. No protocol; software or algorithm could prevent that.

Mostly about #Matrix https://matrix.org/

I wonder if she will mention XMPP or other standards.
