Well, as long as the source code of a system is closed source, no matter what they claim as for privacy/security,you can't verify shit anyways.
-
@Maartz Also keep in mind that according to leaked documents in 2013, apple is integrated within one huge ass mass surveillance program 😬
-
Maartz22876y@linuxxx well that’s what I was wondering, a bit late, but that’s not a problem.
The computer is on the market, changing for Linux (obviously).
For the phone it’s an other short story too. -
@Maartz I'm a big signal user myself and have been a premium tutanota person for years now 😊
-
Maartz22876y@linuxxx I’ve read an article on r/Privacy about Signal, the writer emits caveats about using Signal.
This is the article :

What do you think of ? -
@Maartz I think that the creator has explained himself and people are just hating really. He has explained himself with quite valid arguments imo.
-
@undef As for your second paragraph, can you show me the source code which would prove that?
-
Maartz22876y@linuxxx well I’m using both Signal and Riot.im but honestly my heart goes to Signal ;)
Trust m0xie over Google is a safe bet IMO. -
Maartz22876y@undef because I don’t know keybase, until yet.
That was the goal of my post, what do you guys use and also why ;) -
devTea219176y@linuxxx but I have heard in the past that apple refusing to give leaks of info about someone (criminal iirc) for FBI
-
Maartz22876y@devTea right about the St Bernardino shooter.
Tim Cook published a letter on apple.com
But is it true ? -
TheOct039276y@undef My Android device is free of any Gapp, apart from YouTube. And that was easily done.
-
TheOct039276y@Maartz Yup, I'm using LineageOS :)
But any AOSP ROM that hasn't been bloated with Google does the trick :)

What’s up DevRanters.
Is what’s up still up today ?
Sooo, my question is, what’d you do for your privacy ?
I’m using Signal and Riot.im for chat, ProtonMail for email (tutanota in the future).
But I’m using iPhone, can we really trust Apple ? Is this better on Android with a specific ROM ?
Same for computers (btw I’m not an Arch user 😎).
