I didn’t go looking for a pile of poorly structured garbage but somehow I stumbled across this NY Times article by Reid Blackman about how Signal is dangerously obsessed with privacy and we should probably just trust the government to read our messages just in case we’re doing bad things. /1

The company — an L.L.C. that is governed by a nonprofit — is founded on the belief that it needs to combat what it calls "state corporate surveillance" of our online activities in defense of an uncompromisable value: individual privacy. Distrustful of government and large corporations and apparently persuaded that they are irredeemable, technologists look for workarounds.

    So yeah, don't trust any where it's trivial to siphon away credentials.

    And don't trust any , because they WILL LIE TO YOU just like the of and @protonmail did/still do.

    Keep your keys in self-custody and encryption as well as decryption locally or don't even bother at all!

    And I'd certainly not do critical comms from an insecure device where I don't have full control!
