Using both encryption algorithm: one as usual and another quantum resistant.

C'est curieux de voir comment l'extrême-droite (et Telegram) tapent sur Signal.
Sachant que :
1) Telegram a fait le choix de ne pas activer le chiffrement par défaut, contrairement à Signal.
2) Conséquence : 99% des échanges sur Telegram sont écoutables.
3) Telegram est d'origine Russe (même si visiblement hostiles au pouvoir en place).

La critique a dit: "leurs messages Signal "privés" avaient été exploités contre eux dans les tribunaux ou les médias américains". On ne sais pas qui, ni quand, ni pourquoi...

Elon Musk répond: « Signal présente des vulnérabilités connues qui ne sont pas corrigées. Cela semble étrange... »
Lesquelles?

La suite des arguments est longue... à propos de Telegram:

vous avez pris la décision délibérée de ne pas ajouter de sécurité pour la plupart des utilisateurs, cela sort du domaine de la concurrence et commence à ressembler à de la malveillance.

Images, videos and icons are great. Signal comes with stickers with its proper format.

A great tool could convert such images into stickers, and bundle it into sticker packs.

A greater tool could export these stickers.

Oh wait there is already a website referencing them: https://signalstickers.org/.

A quick documentation about them is available on the dedicated signal webpage

We estimate that by 2025, Signal will require approximately $50 million dollars a year to operate — and this is very lean compared to other popular messaging apps that don’t respect your privacy.

When you send a message, the Signal service temporarily queues that message for delivery. As soon as your message is delivered, that small bundle of encrypted data (i.e. your message) can be dropped from the queue. The storage of end-to-end encrypted files is temporary too, and any undelivered end-to-end encrypted data is automatically purged after a period of inactivity.

It also shows different service costs and why they are like that. It shows the care Signal has to privacy in its different services.

Signal tends to have their incomes from their users. Users donating will be awarded of a badge on their profile. This will allow them to be consistent with their principles and to be independent, while giving reputation to their financial contributors.

We will see how this evolve :)

The response of Matrix to Moxie (Signal maintainer). And why a decentralized version is needed on the internet.

Alternatives: Matrix, Briar, Jitsi, XMPP

Signal was again ordered by a judge to provide user information. But since everything is encrypted from end to end, here is the only information they were able to provide:

• date/time of account creation.
• date/time of the last connection to the service.
  And that's it.
  That's it.
  It's probably not perfect software, but use Signal.
