> Anything that doesn't comply with major governments is automatically a "dark web" for cyber criminals.
I came here to say that. I'm glad more people are not so ignorant anymore, and see what's going on. There is a clear agenda to demonize any service the government can't easily listen and record.
The way things are going with dystopian covid measures, I expect humanity to need systems that aren't controlled to put up resistence in the near future.
Somewhat unrelated, but has anyone noticed the appalling quality of the FT's comments section? You'd think that the leading financial paper would be able to stop people from flaming each other in the comments. In their recent AUKUS coverage as well, there were commentors cheering on the idea of war.
As a long-time FT subscriber, I and others have noticed a very steep decline over the last year or so. Before, I didn't always agree with the comments, but they were usually at least somewhat insightful. Some readers suspect an organized incursion of state-sponsored malefactors. One certainly notices more of the bile on certain types of subjects (Russia, China, internet, US political system) than others.
I think this is a general problem with comment sections. It seems to be both a symptom and a major cause of the decline of civility in the 21st century.
comment sections on news websites are consistently so bad, to the point where a lot of them don't even remove strange MLM spam I think it's just better to turn them off tbh.
No, you can E2EE on all clients. But Secret Chats are always a 1:1 session between devices. You can't start a Secret Chat on one device and continue on another.
This might seem like an inconvenience but it avoids the pitfall leading to
the recent Matrix exploits...
