@signalapp no it's not.
Being a #centralized, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider solution subject to #CloudAct makes you inherently vulnerable by your own choice and thus trivial to shutdown compared to real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of all the keys and true #decentralization as well as #SelfHosting (i.e. #PGP/MIME [see @delta / #deltaChat et. al.] and #XMPP+#OMEMO [see @monocles / #monoclesChat et. al.]!)
And don't even get me started on you collecting #PII (espechally #PhoneNumbers) for no valid reason, (thus violating #GDPR & #BDSG)...
But yeah, I'll be patient to shout "#ToldYaSo" to your annoying cult of fanboys!
@dalias I sincerely disagree because none of my claims got debunked and no evidence against #XMPP+#OMEMO have come up to me as of today.
I hope to be proven wrong, but up until now I've always been at the position of saying #ToldYaSo!
You know what's sickening to me is when someone asks for my #honest and #professional advice, knowing that it is grounded in #experience and #knowledge just to knowingly disregard it and then come on #whining when precisely happens what I predicted!
It's just fucking disappointing to me, cuz there ain't any valid reason to spitefully disregard my word.
@Natasha_Jay I wounder if the author is still alive or at least was alive by the time FaceTime and other Videocalling options became affordable...
Would be funny to see them say "#ToldYaSo!" ...
@heiseonline tja, #CensorBoot in Aktion!
@GrapheneOS Well, you've to ask #Google and #Fiarphone that and consider invoking #Regulators like @EUCommission, @kartellamt@social.bund.de and others in that matter.
Which again proves my point:
#AllGAFAMsAreEvil and NOONE shoud've ever trusted them with anything!
The #Android ecosystem is fucked up and there is a need for #vendors to refuse to bow before #Google and actually do #secure & #repairable devices.
Again: You seem angry at the wromg person if that means you're angry at me.
The question to me is how is #GrapheneOS gonna go about this?
So my question is when will you get forward and work with other #vendors instead of tying your project to Google-specific and thus sorta-proprietary implementations?
[...] Pixel targets have a lot of device-specific hardening in the AOSP base along with some in GrapheneOS which needs to be ported over too. For example, various security features in the kernel including type-based Control Flow Integrity (CFI) and the shadow call stack are currently specific to the kernels for these devices. [...]
To me that sounds like some very serious #VendorLockIn you're stuck in, and now it bites you in your rear...
I hate to say it, but #ToldYaSo sadly happened!
I guess you gotta have to bootstrap it from scratch starting with #toybox + musl / #linux sooner or later...
Not to seem like an asshole, but I do sincerely wish GrpaheneOS and it's team only the best of luck and that the issue gets fixed sooner than later, because this #Vendor #LockIn is a major issue [and yes I do blame the Device Vendors that shit out unmaintained garbage] so unless you can afford the legal cost of actuall enforcing #EU laws re: #SecurityUpdates and force Vendors like #Fairphone to actually follow their claims re: #Security and #Updates, this won't move anywhere.
I do however also don't expect you to find a magical solution. My point is that there needs to be a change of strategy, and relying on Hardware you neither own nor control in the sense of Stakeholding isn't going to provide you with the necessary stability.
@moehrenfeld ist keine #Desinformation, sondern #UnbequemeWahrheit dass ale #zentralisierten Lösungen shice sind!
Wenn @signalapp #Datenschutz und #Sicherheit erst nehmen würden, würden die dies garnicht erst tun!
Und solange #Signal eine #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider - Lösung ist wird dies anfällig sein, denn aich @Mer__edith wird eher snitchen als Knast riskieren...
#Protip: If you #spamcall / #robocall or otherwise #Spam me with #SMS or #eMail, you will be called out for that publicly!

And no, it's not "my" responsibility to "unsubscribe" aka. validate any shitty spammers #mailinglist, but it's their responsibility to acquire #consent firsthand.
Of course I am frustrated that @BNetzA doesn't do shit about #Spammers despite Spam being illegal!
Nevertheless, I know #NamethemBlamseThem and #BlockThemReportThem works way better...
@davidho no!
Instead we should have like #BikingInfrastructure and #PublicTransport instead of #CarCentricInfrastructure noone but #cars can use.
#BEVs won't save the world - period!
@6d03 @rahmstorf weil sonst #Mobilität nicht als #Grundrecht und #Infrastruktur sondern als #Privileg etabliert wird!
@piratenpartei Mag ja ungern #ToldYaSo rufen aber bei deren #IT - #Infrastruktur ist das schon ein Naturgesetz...
So wie Wasser nass ist...
@Walker @DivineKestrel @bsi #NotLegalAdvice but to me that #risk alone makes #Windows in general a non-starter...
It's also not that I want to brag, but I always #ToldYaSo to everyone that #Windows11 will be even more incapable to comply than #Windows10 with #GDPR & #BSDG.
And that's just in the regular context of an average #SmallBusiness that writes invoices and prints shipping labels and has to file taxes and do accounting.
Don't even get me started on anything #confidential containing #PII or #MedicalRecords...
In fact, I'm convinced a lot of places I know will now frantically call up their lawyers and when those refuse to put their career and livelyhood on the line they'll get real panic and be forced to migrate away...
@AufstandLastGen #ToldYaSo, was #FaschistischeLackshoce angeht:
Mal sehen wie teuer diese #ScheissAktion eurerseits wird...
@SheDrivesMobility @bmdv also ich glaube dass bei solchen Bullshit-Aktionen die Gefährliche Eingriffe in den Luftverkehr darstellen die #VorhersehbarenKonsequenzen kommen...
Das einzige was passieren wird ist dass jene*r Schichtleiter*in der Security und Sicherheitschef*in daraus nen Strick gedreht wird denn gem. #IATA & #ICAO-Standards hätte keine*r von @AufstandLastGen auch nur ansatzweise in den Perimeter eindringen können dürfen, geschweige denn auf Rollfeld und Landebahn...
Für mich wirkt das was #LetzteGeneration abzieht mehr und mehr nach #AgentProvocateur um ne Steilvorlage zu haben damit #Proteste kriminalisiert und #Massenüberwachung legitimiert werden kann!
@kuketzblog kannste so sehen - ändert aber genauswenig an der Realität.
Genauso wie das Leugnen von Corona dies nicht verschwinden lässt oder dass das Gezeter von Flacherdler den Planeten weniger rotiereb lässt...
