    @seanino78 @signalapp If the Cryptocurrency market overall or a digital asset is solving problems, it's going to drive some value

  • thechandanp çhänďañ (@thechandanp) reported

  • ShaileshGunjal5 Shailesh Gunjal (@ShaileshGunjal5) reported

    @signalapp Dont interfere in our internal matter. Focus on ur problems.

  • linmobblog LINux on MOBile (@linmobblog) reported

    @fatbird84577603 Are you refering to that -scale desktop-file hack? While I don't trust Telegram, their Qt-based desktop client is just a lot better suited for #LinuxPhones than @signalapp's non-responsive Electron app. While a few CSS hacks might help here, they would likely bring trust issues.

  • AttilaDeak01 Attila Deak (@AttilaDeak01) reported

    @dktatlow @signalapp The signal app encryption was not yet broken but if someone has physical access to the phone obviously that device is compromised. If you are targeted it means that you are under surveillance, usually this is done by trained professionals and in this field everything is allowed

  • tommymysk Tommy Mysk (@tommymysk) reported

    Unlike other free E2E encrypted apps such as @signalapp and @WhatsApp, you don’t need a phone number to use the service. So, you buy the app once and you install it on your devices, or twice to cover Android. Each device will get it‘s own Threema ID

  • VJjha Vibhuti Jha 🇮🇳 (@VJjha) reported

    @signalapp Hey Signal - someone duped you with a wrong signal !! Or you are part of the problem! What’s true? I thought you folks were neutral platform but it seems you are not!!

  • AMITANJANC Amitanjan Chowdhury (@AMITANJANC) reported

    @ndtv @signalapp So now it is clear where from the problem is coming . Big tech who have to follow the law .

  • asingh_25 Ashutosh Singh (@asingh_25) reported

    @amitkdw @VasaiVirarINC @signalapp There is difference between phone hacking and phone TAPPING and erstwhile govt has replied in RTI also. But this govt is not willing to accept and this spooked is done by Isreal company s/w it means data center not in India so it is national security issue as well.

  • askingfrankly FranklyAsking (@askingfrankly) reported

    @namsardar @arunpudur @signalapp signal e2ee service to encrypt their own apps. even whatsapp and google messages with rcs uses signal to encrypt their messages

  • sainairv Saivn (@sainairv) reported

    @signalapp @arvindgunasekar They snoop and target and will wait for some chance ..to put them into trouble ..deshdrohigovt

  • md786786saif Mohammad Saif (@md786786saif) reported

    @amitkdw @signalapp Shut the fckk up you flipping twàt and stop spit licking modi's boots. Its really easy for you to speak on other international concerns but stings your hairy hard *** when u have to face criticism. Sit the fck down

  • rajkishorsasane Rajkishor Sasane (@rajkishorsasane) reported

    @signalapp But that bjp party not speak yet on this problems and IT minister says this happened around 40 countries

  • JunaidKathjoo Junaid Kathju (@JunaidKathjoo) reported

    @signalapp need help. Please inbox.

  • genxoutlaw ☠︎ (@genxoutlaw) reported

    @signalapp i've been a dedicated user since the beginning & i'm having a horrible time with read receipts. it causes a lot of confusion when things are marked as read when you haven't even opened the app, only pulled down the screen to the notification centre to see the time...

  • jonesyoutubejt Jt Jones (@jonesyoutubejt) reported

    @shubhamdutt13 @signalapp Most of the times its better to take stand than to bow down for profits! Huge respect to brands who think so and give importance to Ethics

  • vishal_313 Vishal Agnihotri (@vishal_313) reported

    @NiaSpeaks_ @BasakArnab @signalapp What a stupid moronic tweet.. folks are so blinded that they don’t even see the enormity of this issue.. someone hacks into and surveils citizens opposed to govts line of thinking and you call this an attack on govt.. what a load of BS

  • ElucTheG33K Eluc (@ElucTheG33K) reported

    @rmcd0 @signalapp @LineageAndroid It ends up to be a work profile issue. I remove the work.profile and reinstalled Signal, it looks OK so far but I will need to make the Work profile working eventually, otherwise I will need to mix my pro and private contacts and other stuffs, I really don't like this.

  • shaheerkkkk shaheerk (@shaheerkkkk) reported

    @sillyposts @telegram @signalapp I haven't used Signal (but their encryption protocol is in WhatsApp), but as for Telegram... The only things I wish Telegram has (which WhatsApp doesn't have an issue with) is - critical mass (not everyone uses it regularly), and - governments blocking the app

  • TheSykic Capt. Alpha (Retd.) (@TheSykic) reported

    @fs0c131y @signalapp Pegasus can pass through signal app and any vpn. Even pass manager wont help in this case.

  • abhigya abhigya (@abhigya) reported

    @fs0c131y @signalapp Will using a vpn or signal app help if a device is already compromised? Is there a way a normal smartphone user can figure out if their device is compromised?

  • MadhavGolwalkar Madhav Sadashiv Golwalkar (@MadhavGolwalkar) reported

    @tbothernot @K_Truthology @signalapp This will break encryption. If you are so fond of having low security chats, just use SMS or Facebook Messenger. Don’t trouble the rest of us.

  • PrateekKChadha 🇮🇳 Prateek Chadha 🇮🇳 (@PrateekKChadha) reported

    4. Specialist privacy apps/services like @signalapp @telegram @ProtonMail are almost fully secure at the service providers end. #Pegasus got around this by getting to data before you are protected by their encryption tech. This is done by exploiting weaknesses in Android/IoS 3/n

  • islamicdood 🕷️🐝 (@islamicdood) reported

    I don't know when? But I'd love to see my @signalapp use an username/ID to login and forget the phone number it ever used. Kudos to new updates and solidary changes!!!

  • vjakhu Vilakshan Jakhu (@vjakhu) reported

    @Sparya @signalapp Filing in court when all evidence lies with Govt doesn't really help. Historically courts never question Govt spends on national security purchases. And make no mistake #pegasus is a #cyberweapon So unlikely Indian courts can do anything.

  • ksg91 Kishan Gor (@ksg91) reported

    @fs0c131y @signalapp How would signal, VPN or a password manager help in this case?

  • Atheistsammy Sammy S 🇮🇳 (@Atheistsammy) reported

    @signalapp Gandu every single day Im getting calls from signal where someone is trying an anonymous login.

  • cyberpheus Besi 🇦🇱 (@cyberpheus) reported

    @signalapp My sms confirmation does not come to my nr. I have followed all troubleshooting. Can u help?

  • seeni_me Seeni (@seeni_me) reported

    @rajkishorsasane @signalapp He also said "illegal surveillance is not possible". A REAL DUMB is our India's IT minister. God help us.

  • PenfoldDavid David Penfold 🌳 🌳 🌳 (@PenfoldDavid) reported

    @fs0c131y @signalapp That's for the network injection attacks. For the others, I guess decreasing the attack surface with something like GrapheneOS would also help.
