    In order to retain our rights to private communications, we have to win every time.

    In order to take them away, they only have to win once.

    They will keep trying.

    Stay vigilant.

    The real challenge is getting loved ones to care enough to use a FREE encrypted communication app.

    Its like they see privacy as an anti-feature and would rather leave the door wide open for anyone to come rummage through their messages.

    From a cybersecurity perspective, it is nearly impossible to create a backdoor to a communications product that is only accessible for certain purposes or under certain conditions.

    Oh? It is possible? Pray tell, how?

      Screen recording or snapshots like Windows Recall. Or keyboard telemitry.

      But that’s it I think.

        It’s well known that iphone, google samsung and microsoft android keyboards are the most used keyloggers in the world.

            The NSA and advertisers. It was confirmed the MS Android keyboards were keyloggers after microsoft suffered a data breach revealing millions of typing records, so it’s not far fetched to assume windows does the same, especially after you see the sheer amount of data being sent straight to microsoft servers when analysing traffic.

    If the law ever says that we are not allowed to have encryption, I am absolutely going to be one of the first ones going to jail because I’m not going to put up with that.

    The way I see it is you can throw me in jail where you then have to feed me, give me proper climate control, give me a place to sleep, etc. all on your dime.

      How long do you think your rights in prison are going to last once they’ve eliminated your most basic rights outside of prison?
