More importantly, Meta also has the encryption keys of any WhatsApp conversation.
It’s like a fucking META password manager that unlocks your vault… (…as in your WhatsApp conversations) and locks it when they are done spying, whenever they feel like. Repeatedly.
You have no control, as in a secure private conversation unless you have the keys on your device.
Nice!
Thanks for the info.
Been eying one for quite a while. I have read that the build quality is good too. Along with a good cooling solution.
I’m actually thinking of using it as a replacement for my desktop/gaming machine. I only play 1 or 2 games anyway. Nothing the 780m can’t handle with ease. Also planning on 24/7 operation due to the much lower wattage.
I bought a minisforum um890 recently.
How do you like it? I’m planning of buying one and putting Proxmox on it.
Well, they partly took that “feature” away because people thought they were sending encrypted SMS messages which is not true. False sense of security.
They just took the secure high road and ditched SMS. It also made the app leaner with a smaller attack surface.
I think they did the right decision. Signal is the secure choice for the masses.
Having said that, I’m using Molly-Foss as it has less footprints, no Google messaging framework, leaner than Signal, with no crypto payment, and an encrypted database at rest.
