Twitter launched encrypted DMs with the project lead falsely saying the program had been audited by an outside firm. In fact, @zoeschiffer.bsky.social and I report today, no contract had been signed https://www.platformer.news/p/why-you-cant-trust-twitters-encrypted
Why you can't trust Twitter's encrypted DMs

A promised audit hasn't actually happened, sources say. PLUS: Twitter's Turkey problem, and a new CEO

@caseynewton Also in the post:

Maybe Yaccarino and Musk will get along famously and help to rebuild the ad business that he has spent the past six months cheerfully undermining. Or maybe he will tire of her pushback, as he has tired of so many of his previous executives, and she’ll be looking for new work again within months.

In any case, the fact that she’s taking over for a Shiba Inu would seem to say a lot about what Musk thinks of the role

@RoboGorillaman @caseynewton any crypto newbie knows “not your keys, not your crypto” and in this case twitter holds the private key in a public key cryptography system. There is nothing secure about this.
