sarehu posted:Don't hang out online with people that get butthurt over your posting who somehow also are too cool to use the shift key. This is a good post. I like it because it demonstrates three variants of tribalism in only a single sentence: the Boomer xenophobia about avoiding the shift key, Gen-X angst over people who think they're cool, and the Millennial attitude that an echo chamber is objectively better than differences in belief. Forums poster sarehu, thank you for this gift.

it's my understanding that Facebook finds it worthwhile to allow people in authoritarian regimes to use their services - they even have a tor-facing server so you can connect via hidden service. it's my understanding things like whatsapp are already used/in a position to be used by people in that same situation. it's worth the social/ethical capital for them to support keeping those communication lines open even if it doesn't support their main business

DeaconBlues posted:So are you saying that the kudos (or 'cool factor') they receive for providing such a service (if it is trustworthy) is worth the possibility of putting the government and/or legal system's noses out of joint? I'm going off half-remembered posts from fb people in yospos but I think it boiled down to "we have the ability, and therefore responsibility, to lose targeted ads to prevent targeted bullets for a segment of people"

OSI bean dip posted:I'd be careful about challenging pr0zac on this one here because he actually knows a thing or two more about WhatsApp than most here. no dude you don't understand the man wants us to think it's encrypted so it can ??? that it wouldn't already do over non-encrypted channels or the man knows that people who want secret conversations are totally going to click those targeted ads about the conversations they have, this is obviously an untapped market

pr0zac posted:Do you understand how iOS device tokens work? Do you need me to explain why the answers to those last two questions make avoiding metadata collection on whatsapp trivial for anyone whos concerned about that? I'd unironically like to know more about both of these

Mustache Ride posted:No no no, you're not getting it at all. I agree that av is crap. That's why we don't pay for it. You should at least use something you get with a Microsoft license than nothing at all to stop the limited crap it does catch. guys guys i'm with you 100% except for the point you're actually making so can we please just agree i'm right and move on

The point of it all is, it runs in the client browser without external dependencies or communication. hey bro i read some site and pro-tip ssl is free now

the media will report it as a gas leak, but we'll know the real cause of the explosion was putting security and antisecurity in such close proximity realtalk good on you for taking the hits and deciding to learn more instead of hugboxing
