Get off of Github if you think this is a problem 🤷 There are alternatives like Forgejo (Codeberg), Gitlab, and Radicle (decentralised).

I guess we entertained each other for long enough 🤷
You ignore Pegasus, the CLOUD act, applications unable to start, play down their bug bounty program and their position as an ad company. You say you follow the fruit farm very closely for very long, but didn’t know about any of the things I posted. It doesn’t seem like you ever were going to take anything i posted seriously. Can’t say I’m surprised.
Anyway, you’re probably rooting for more ethical opensource instead of less (at least I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt). Have a nice life.


That was lemmy messing with the link :/ I input [Pegasus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegasus_/(spyware/)) (notice the \ escapes) and it transformed it to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegasus_/(spyware/)
Functional link. This one should work (also updated the one in original comment).


I was however asking links about your more wild claims “Iphones haven been hacked”, “bezos has been hacked” etc. Those are very hard to believe without any evidence.
Enjoy the read.


@sarahjamielewis@mastodon.social and rewrite in rust? or just keep it cpp?


Putting aside my opinions about Framework and their nazi-enveloping tent, I think this is good news and could help get more Linux users. North America already has 10% linux market share. If more youtubers keep talking about it, we could see another jump.
And if you have a YouTube account, you can also ask MKBHD to join the fediverse. Now that he’s on Linux, it’s the next logical step!


Android is still controlled by Goofle. They release the source when they want to and how they want to. They change the rules the same way and everybody has to scramble to adapt once the changes drop. That’s hardly the way it should be working.
Just because android has a headstart, doesn’t mean we should stick our heads in the sand and proclaim a forever winner.


For now, yes they aren’t more secure. That’s no surprise as that hasn’t been the focus. Linux hasn’t been used in that fashion for a long time and there’s catching up to do.
Getting a linux phone on the market and getting it into many people’s hands plus that of developers will make it secure. Especially if governments invest in secure phones for their armies, special forces, and intelligence community.


I really hope you aren’t in charge of security in grassroots orgs, because if you are, they are fucked.


AI companies, the gift that keeps on giving…


If you’re using text messages, yes, but not with signal. They just know that you have it, nothing more.


Buddy, how are you going to communicate with people via Signal even without a username? Are protests full of free WiFi?
If you think getting rid of phone numbers on an internet connected application will help you at a local protest where you should be using a local network for communication (Bluetooth for example), you are just lost.
Having your phone number will only reveal that you’re using signal, not who you’re talking with nor the groups you belong to.


Any official message from them? I thought they had a mastodon.
Edit: Lol the mastodon instance they’re on is also down. And it’s a German instance on a German cloud server. German engineering?


Just because I’m not willing to accept “trust me bro” doesn’t make me “paranoid”, it makes me not gullible. If you’re willing to trust them without proof, why not believe Google’s marketing about being safe?


Wat? What about public groups?


I assume I need to create an account for that and login? Why should I go through the hassle of creating an account to verify claims? These are things that should be verifiable externally without privileged access.
And reading further, they say that after 12 months you can get the code with a BSL and then AGPL. That’s great, but they say you can’t publish the archive once they give it to you? That’s not very AGPL. And it means that you first have to pay for a year before knowing whether their claims are valid. And that depends on you getting the code for the relevant parts of the search engine.
It’s possible they are doing what they say, but to start trusting, there has to be proof. Somehow.


And how’s the spam on simplex?
Steam is still at 4%, so I’m guessing it’s just AI bots or something.
