@cryptadamist @davetroy @Powerfromspace1 @davidgerard OFC #Telegram is involved in that #Shitcoin, tho @signalapp did their own Shitcoin (#MobileCoin) first and has a evidently worse experience per my own testing.

The only use-case I've seen for #TonCoin is a paywalled circumvention of #PhoneNumber requirements, and I'd rather recommend people to "obtain" an anonymous (e)SIM and cheap throwaway phone for cash to circumvent that than jumping through hoops to obtain some shitcoin one can't even exchange...

Man hätte es ahnen können, dass der Typ, der erst die Crypto-'Währung' #MobileCoin in #Signal eingebaut hat (übrigens immer noch drin), als Nächstes in LLMs macht.

@Mer__edith No, this is exactly where you got it wrong!

  • Tho I'd blame #Moxie and his arrgance building @signalapp instead of you personally.

Also how's that #MobileCoin #Shitcoin going?

  • Will it be removed soon or will the #Scam be continued?

Cuz last time I checked #Signal neither cmplied with #MICA nor had any #license for a #MoneyRemittance business in the Eurosystem and @BaFin & @bsi already shutdown the #WorldCoin scam due to way lesser infractions…

@Mer__edith except @signalapp chose to add that bloat (just like choice was made to add #MobileCoin!) and force it onto your infrastructure instead of doing what even AAA Videogames do and let the users host it…

  • I mean, there is no legitimate reason you couldn't do something like #WebCall or similar #WebRTC implementations that are #P2P!

@Mer__edith@mastodon.world There are options, it's just that @signalapp@mastodon.world is too incompetent to do so (according to your wording) or rather *chose not.to take these routes*… - Also *you chose* to integrate #bloat like #Videocalling and do #centralization instead of proper #PeerToPeer communications! But since you don't pay me to fix it, it ain't my problem! - So consider this the worst or best sales pitch. I'm shure you'll be able to tell me in case you actually care, [cuz I do!](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114935952643402592)

@Mer__edith To me using #aws shows that you have more #money than #sense and that @signalapp is a #MoneyBurningParty, thus (like #ICQ before) not #sustainable long-term.

@0x0 @dzwiedziu @0x4d6165 some folks seem to not get it…

  • #Trump is at best a #UsefulIdiot for #Putin and his only loyal to his own wallet, bank accounts and,(offshore?) holdings!

If it would enshure his and his son's perpetual rule, he'd hand over the U.S. nuclear arsenal to #Putin and publicly shoot his wife on live television.

Plus @signalapp is not sustainable and peddles #Shitcoin-#Scams like #MobileCoin that even seasoned "#CryptoBros" like @techlore couldn't get to work.

@dzwiedziu@mastodon.social @0x4d6165@wanderingwires.net I've no patience for bullshit & gaslighting. - Even *if* that was a correct counter-argument, you don't have to serve your comms on a silver platter to hostile actors, like a total idiot. Your [continued](https://mastodon.social/@dzwiedziu/115411075948711246) [disinformation](https://mastodon.social/@dzwiedziu/115416603623385332) endangers peoples lives and I sincerely wish to be wrong, but alas [I'm not!](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/115414516098677724) - And it's not that I've not given @signalapp@mastodon.world [a fair chance](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114935952643402592) but they went out of their way to literally step into every pit and bucket they could. #JuristictionMatters and ignoring this - alongside the extreme #centralization of #Signal makes you sound like a #UsefulIdiot! - Alas you'll have time to apologize when this shitshow implodes and I'll be shouting #ToldYaSo! Or have you never asked how #Sinal *"keeps it's lights on"?* - Or how they are *knowingly* being *allowed to offer their sevices* to *nationals under Embargo* that neither #aws not any #hoster that falls under #CloudAct would even remotely allow? Cuz those #ITAR - exemptions *require permit from the US government* (Treasury Dept.) that is harder to obtain than a destructive device dealer/manufacturer/importer license (from the ATF)... And no I *cannot* elaborate further on that example! #EOD #thxbye #next

@lucasmz @fdroidorg @torproject

Let's just say @signalapp / #Signal is so good, it scratches that part of my mind that doesn't allow good to exist without precondition...

But maybe that's just me flexing life experience and the fact that my paranoia always turned out to be justified.

Given they offer their Services to people in #Russia, #Cuba and #Iran, thus being in clonflict with #ITAR, I'm pretty much convinced they had to have a deal with the U.S. Government to get that done.

So yeah, there will be some #LawfulInterception doodat and even if it's not within Signal's infrastructure, I'd call the #NSA "criminally stupid" if they didn't intercept all the "Verification #SMS" and all the data from and to Signal's Systems routinely to #BULLRUN against it...
