@stormii @debby okay.

Still a #centralized, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider service that snitches on users if it ain't yet another #Honeypot like #ANØM...

@kibcol1049 This is funny because I work in #cybersecurity. The term #honeypot has a totally different meaning for us.

We set up systems we call honeypots to lure in malicious hackers. They look vulnerable, they look like they have juicy data on them. But they actually are not really used for anything but lures. Anything connecting to that system is automatically suspicious because the system serves no other purpose. We are hoping that bad guys try to attack the honeypot so we can identify them; figure out what methods they’re using, and protect ourselves from them.

So the idea of a honeypot being something innocent and good (just popular) is the opposite of how I usually use that word.

@kkarhan >I may nit have allvthe.evidence yet, but #Signal stenches like #ANØM: #Honeypot-esque!

Drugs are a hell of a drug.

@signalapp @torproject

@signalapp It's not #disinfo when one points out that you demand #PII aka. #PhoneNumbers from Users and that is literally a architectural vulnerability, alongside your #proprietary & #Centralized #Infrastructure.

• #Signal being a #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider #Solution is literally the reason why I consider it #insecure.

Not to mention the lack of @torproject / #Tor support with an #OnionService or the willingness to fulfill #cyberfacist "Embargoes" or shilling a #Shitcoin #Scam named #MobileCoin!

• #KYC is the illicit activity!!!

And don't get me started on the #cyberfacism that is #CloudAct.

• If you were secure, criminals would've used your platform so hard, it would've been shutdown like #EncroChat and #SkyECC.

I may nit have allvthe.evidence yet, but #Signal stenches like #ANØM: #Honeypot-esque!

@alwayscurious @froge @fj #CloudAct alone not, but it's just the tip of the iceberg.

• I bet you that @signalapp & @Mer__edith will comply with even the most illegal and cyberfacist orders when facing "rubberhose cryptoanalysis", which is a valid and likely risk factor in the #USA...

Again: The only #security is #decentralization!

• This is why @torproject is still up and running: It cannot be shutdown even when all maintainers are being held at gunpoint.

#Signal is as vulnerable as #EncroChat if it's not a #Honeypot like #ANØM!

@licho @osman provide evidence the code @signalapp released is actually being deployed.

• Whereas @monocles has #ReproducibleBuilds to the point that @fdroidorg literally pulls their git and builds it from source.

Not to mention pushing a #Shitcoin-#Scam (#MobileCoin) disqualifies #Signal per very design!

• Given the collection of #PII like #PhoneNumbers, the ability to restrict functionality based off those and the fact that #Signal is subject to #CloudAct make it inherently not trustworthy.

And don't even get me started on the fact.it's not sustainable to run it as a #VCmoneyBurningParty!

• As soon as Signal becomes a problem, it will be taken offline, and due to the fact that it is #centralized, #proprietary, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider that's trivial for authorities.

Same as identifying users: They already got a #PhoneNumber which in many juristictions one can't even obtain without #ID legally, thus making it super easy to i.e. find and locate a user. Even tze cheapest LEAs can force their local M(V)NOs to #SS7 a specific number...

• All these are unnecessary risks, that could've been avoided, but explicitly don't even get remediated retroactively!

Again: Signal has a #Honeypot stench, and you better learn proper #E2EE, #SelfCustody and #TechLiteracy because corporations can't pull the 5th [Amendment] on your behalf!

@ip6li @heiseonline @briar und natürlich #XMPP+#OMEMO sowie #PGP/MIME.

IMHO ist @signalapp eh nen #Honeypot!

@abschleppgruppe@verkehrswende.social @abschleppgruppe@bird.makeup @bacwberlin Der weiße Pferdecontainer wurde ja gestern auf meine Aufforderung an die Truppen der 110 kostenpflichtig um 5 Meter aus dem Kreuzungsbereich nach links versetzt - um dem nächsten PKW Platz zu machen, dessen Besitzy auch gerne mal die Konsequenzen der #Wochendbrigade der @abschleppgruppe@verkehrswende.social am eigenen Geldbeutel erleben wollte ... 110 anruf, VBH- Meldung #honeypot Regensburger @falschparkenber

@truls46 Ein gutes Gegenbeispiel zu @signalapp ist @monocles / #monoclesChat:

• Es werden keine persönliche Daten verlangt!

• Es wird ein offener Standard (#XMPP+#OMEMO) genutzt, sodass #SelfCustody und #Datenhoheit gewährleistet ist!

• Der Dienst ist zwar kostenpflichtig (€2 p.m.), aber komplett anonym bezahlbar (inkl. #Monero & #CashByMail)!

• Nutzung von @torproject #Tor wird nicht verhindert oder blockiert; @guardianproject / #Orbot wird unterstützt!

• In #Deutschland gibt's immernoch #Rechtsstaatlichkeit, anders als in den #USA!

• Anders als #Signal ist #monocles ehrlich, was Sicherheit und Datenschutz angeht...

Ich denke mal das sollte hinreichend meine Argumebte darlegen.

• Kernpunkt ist und bleibt: Signal ist bestenfalls gemeingefährlich-inkompetent oder ein #Honeypot!
