#DeltaChat is a great decentralised 🇪🇺 messenger alternative to #WhatsApp and #Signal. @delta

The onboarding of a new user is ridiculously easy. Suitable for messaging w friends and family as well as security conscious users.

Just wanted to mention that. 🙂

#Signal seems to have been down for a bit today, so this is a good moment to consider if you have backup comms channels with people you care about.

A Signal Contingency Plan, if you will:

I agree with the recommendation there and am working on making Delta Chat @delta that kind of backup channel for me and mine.

#Resilience

Signal President Meredith Whittaker warns AI agents embedded in OSes are eroding end-to-end encryption's real-world security, despite its mathematical soundness. With root-like access to messages & data, they bypass E2EE isolation—urgent rethink needed! 🔒🤖❌

Signal president warns AI agents are making encryption irrelevant

Signal president Meredith Whittaker said AI agents embedded within operating systems are eroding the practical security guarantees of E2EE.

Anyone have any recommendations on how to obtain a copy of the book without going through Amazon?

#Signal #Book #Amazon #Kindle

Strong recommendation youtube.com/watch?v=VRQz9EX2Tl…

for all the #smartwatch kids. Talk is in English.

Personal takeaways:

- photos taken with the device could be hacked, so no photos of any children, possibly expand to no photos of anything identifiable
- distrust that messages definitively come from parents, they could be coming from everyone. In emergencies, call, don't text. Trust in messages like "be 5 m late, wait at the school/pickup spot" but not "there's been an emergency with grandmother, you're being picked up by mummy's friend" and not "take the bus/a taxi home instead of waiting for me"

If at all possible, install @signalapp on the phone, it's just an android under the hood.

Hyvä Suomi! Yksityisyydestä tunnettu WhatsAppin korvaaja Signal nousi Suomen suosituimmaksi viestisovellukseks

Järeästä salauksestaan ja yksityisyydestään tunnettu pikaviestisovellus Signal nousi Suomessa sovelluskauppojen suosituimmaksi viestisovellukseksi tammikuun 2026 lopulla.

^{Petteri Pyyny (Puhelinvertailu)}

Signal kiipesi juuri suosituimpien viestintäsovellusten kärkeen Suomessa Android-alustoilla. App Storessa toistaiseksi vielä toisena, ensimmäisenä on Threads.

Hyvä suomalaiset! Signalia kannattaa suosia. Yksityiset tietomme eivät ole kauppatavaraa. Itselläni ollut WhatsApp roskissa jo vuoden.
