Signal's use case is "authentic communication". like when a govt person interacts with other govt person and doesn't want a second govt to snoop on the actual contents on the communication, but accepts that metadata is public.

It is whatsapp for such people, without being whatsapp.

But then why would you use whatsapp either ?

phone number isn't just any metadata; it is the anchoring data around which the rest of metadata is collected, and it is also connected to govt/corporate verified real identity.

why would anyone even claim to offer privacy around such an anchor ?

 

5 eyes, hard at work.

That the American narrative, including the link you have posted (few thousand angry students, acting alone, forced Sheikh Hasina to flee, then made Chief justice resign at gunpoint), doesn't hold up to even preliminary scrutiny;

but alternative narratives (such as Russian one) are doing much better.

 

Russia told everyone about America designs on Bangladesh. No one cared.

Is it time to write a new open source software?

 

And now Delhi police is using water cannons to break the protests aginst water ministry by water minister.

Irony has rained off the charts.

 

The vaccines are obviously safe, but can someone explain 2021 data from openvaers?

Or maybe we should ignore data in the interest of science.

Posting this just to hightlight that was known and published back in 2018, and things in Wikipedia haven’t become any better. The information published hints at one thing : Jimmy Wales might himself be compromised.

 

Russian news agency draws on post cold-war era examples to narrate why Russia doesn't trust NATO's intentions.
