#WhatsApp has introduced channels, music in status etc. and has made WhatsApp into another social media and less of a mainstream #messenger.

👿 The bad:

• It is targeting people who are not on social media to be hooked.

• I feel there's a possibility of WhatsApp removing encryption in future , now that its even less serious form of messenger.

😈 The good:

• It seems to be so distractive and cluttered that it makes #signal , #simplex and other #floss options more attractive.

Activists, this is your periodic reminder to **be mindful of using WhatsApp for protest coms** . Best to #SwitchToSignal for that, and in general tbh.

Yes, WhatsApp is encrypted by default. But did you know that the backups arent?

So even if you've enabled E2E encrypted backups, your contact may not have done. The folx in the group chats may not have done.

Be careful out there, we need y'all <3 #opsec #protest

The best time to stop using Telegram was before you installed it. The second best time to stop using #Telegram and #SwitchToSignal instead is now.

"Because of the way Telegram’s encryption protocols work, even users who use its “end-to-end” encryption features are vulnerable to being tracked by anyone who can monitor its network traffic."

I see a lot of #signal content here. For those who do not know already, there is a fork-repo for F-Droid, which lets you install signal without the dependency of Playstore. Preferable for those with phones without Google. It works just as good as the original. #molly #messenger #SwitchtoSignal
