@kobayashi90 I'd never trust @protonmail as they literally rat out users...
If they were actually pro-#privacy they'd make themselves incapable of such requests...
@kobayashi90 but hey if @flokinet wants to trash their #reputation by shilling a bad #MicrosoftExchange clone like @protonmail then so be it...

Because I'd not shill a product or service I can't verify myself...

@protonmail
But don't take my word for it.
Cuz I'd call the #FBI and/or #NSA "criminally incompetent" if they haven't placed people inside #ProtonMail if not set it up as their front.
Cuz if something is #TooGoodToBeTrue, it's a lie...

@kobayashi90 shure...
#Seytonic has a short recap in a #WeakWeb episode.

@kobayashi90 I mean, we gotta have to inform the #TechIlliterates that may stumble upon this thread and they too need to be informed on ~why~ claims made by @protonmail, @signalapp and other #centralized #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider solutions are inherently wrong!
We can't complain about people being #'TechIlliterate without doing our part in reducing #TechIlliteracy and making people more #TechLiterate...
@kkarhan @protonmail @signalapp I cant post the meme right now but Signal is bad? What did i miss?
Insert "Wait, Wait, Wait Wait Waaaait" here.
@kobayashi90 very simple:
Like @protonmail they act as a #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider solution and @signalapp not only refuses to distribute their app as #sourcecode so @fdroidorg and others can actually release reproducible builds but they also don't make it #SelfHosting capable.
Not to mention their reliance of #GoogleAPIs and #centralization in the #USA and thus subject to #CloudAct as well as collecting #PhoneNumbers and being thus able and willing to do #Cyberfacism on behalf of US Gov.
@kobayashi90 @signalapp @tfunken depends...
Again: #MonoclesChat + #Orbot and one of many #XMPP servers and you get #secure comms and even if the provider/admins are held and gunpoint and forced to log everything, all they see are #Tor #ExitNodes and/or other @torproject Tor nodes and only scrambled stuff...

@kobayashi90 @signalapp @tfunken @torproject
At most they can see [email protected] communicate with [email protected] and the truly End-to-End - Encrypted Chat.
So unless they steal said devices they can't decrypt shit.
Not bulletproof but requiring the police to actually do some real investigations and find people with evidence in the meatspace to warrant a search and seizure of devices.
At which point if the suspects remain silent and didn't fuck up nothing will come out.
@kobayashi90 @signalapp @tfunken And if one ever gets in the situation to have their premises searched they already violated rule #1:
DON'T GET CAUGHT!
Simple as that...
@kobayashi90 @signalapp @tfunken #OMEMO does support multiple devices and allows distinguishing and managing them...
OFC #MonoclesChat also supports #PGP/MIME besides #OMEMO...
@kobayashi90 yeah...
He might be a cringy asshole worse than Thunderf00t but sadly he's right in terms of technical things more than he should be...
And whilst I'm not a fan of a tinfoilhatted Pepe in a cat costume, that doesn't get me to dismiss his arguments outright...
@kobayashi90 I think being able to have a #NuancedOpinion is key...
Just like RMS being a shit person doesn't invalidate the few points he's right about - like predicting #DRM and #AntiRepair...
But that doesn't make him less of an unlikeable POS!

@vimproved @kobayashi90 Again: I think that he and "#VimDiesel" should be taken with a truckload of salt, but like most #TechBros being shit, being right a few times doesn't make them less bad...

@kobayashi90 *nodds in agreement*
I could've accepted if they just advertised a regular-ass #managed #OpenXchange or #NextcloudHub and not insulted our intellects with obviously false claims...
@kobayashi90 Yeah...
But I'm also shure there's some smol IT biz that sells people #Office365 subscriptions there too...
