[Les Numériques] - #Signal, #WhatsApp, #Telegram… : l’usage de #MessageriesChiffrées considéré comme un comportement terroriste par la justice française ?
Dans le cadre d'une affaire impliquant un groupuscule désigné comme appartenant à l’"ultragauche", le chiffrement des communications est dans le viseur de la justice française. La Quadrature du Net dénonce un "amalgame entre protection de la vie privée et terrorisme".

U can't even call these as channels compared to #telegram 🤣
This is what u actually call something as channels : https://telegram.org/tour/channels
Dues actualitzacions d'impacte de #Meta (Facebook) per als pròxims mesos:
1- #WhatsApp farà canvis molt importants, permetent noms d'usuari i la creació de 'canals'. Sí, tot molt a l'estil de #Telegram, però en una app que absolutament tots ja tenim. https://ja.cat/n6Nut (Blog de WA)
2- #Project92, el competidor de #Twitter d'#Instagram, va agafant forma i es confirma la seva compatibilitat amb #ActivityPub. Segur, una bona sacsejada al #Fedivers. https://ja.cat/6lA7J (via #TheVerge)
WhatsApp 可發送高清相片 新功能現正開始測試

Just looked down at WhatsApp (open on my phone) to find it trying to type out what it was hearing on my tv. Deleted the message so it knew I wasn’t dictating and a few seconds later it was doing it again! Alarming enough that I hadn’t tapped the little mic symbol, but the thing is the app DOESN’T HAVE MIC PERMISSIONS!!! Grrrrrr #WhatsApp #Privacy #Meta
📱 #WhatsApp збирається додати у месенджер можливість створювати канали та підписуватися на них, аналогічно доTelegram.
Щоб допомогти користувачам вибрати канали, за якими можна стежити, команда месенджера створить каталог із можливістю пошуку. Канали будуть закріплені на новій вкладці під назвою «Оновлення», де користувачі знайдуть статус і канали, за якими вони стежать. Користувачі також зможуть потрапити на канал за посиланнями для запрошення, надісланими в чатах чи електронною поштою.

WhatsApp launches Channels feature for broadcast messages, long after Telegram, but plans to monetise it

This is very useful for especially government, disaster management, news services, etc where millions of users can potentially tune-in, unlike with groups. Broadcast channels are also easier to manage as there is no moderation required.
But the differences come in with WhatsApp wanting to monetise these channels, and also limit them so that individuals are not able to use them. On Telegram's side, they have always been free, and even individuals could just create one and get going with them.
So WhatsApp continues to try keeping up with Telegram, but they always seem to be two steps or more behind with so many features. Yet we do know that the best features, the best security (I'm speaking broader than Telegram), most interoperable protocols, have never featured in the mass users' choice of what they use (just think VHS vs Betamax).
If corporates want to ever escape the ongoing squeeze of money out of them, they need to think open networks, interoperability, etc.

It's a pleasant how rarely I have to turn to my burner #whatsapp (on a 8 year old phone with a disposable number sitting in a drawer) to talk to people in #Indonesia anymore - nearly everyone is on Signal or Telegram now.

It may be VERY relevant if #Johnson's #whatsapp messages contained a science-based conversation with someone like Chris Whitty as to how #Sunak's #EatOutToHelpOut scheme would increase the 'R' rate - as indeed it was later proved.
"#BorisJohnson’s #WhatsApp messages claim doesn’t make sense, security sources say"
That's because it's his version of #Trump's "I'm not allowed to show you my tax returns because I'm being #audited" lie.
And whatever #Sunak is hiding must presumably be at least as bad, if not worse, than anything people might speculate - otherwise they wouldn't bother.

Not only is E2EE necessary to protect us from griefers, stalkers, corporate snoops, mafiosi, etc, but E2EE is the only thing standing between the world's dictators and total surveillance of every digital communication. Even tiny flaws in E2EE can have grave human rights concerns. For example, a subtle bug in #Whatsapp was used by #NSOGroup to create a cyberweapon called #Pegasus that the #Saudi royals used to lure #JamalKhashoggi to his grisly murder:

Aktuell empört man sich (vornehmlich auf Twitter) über den Messenger WhatsApp. Angeblich soll WhatsApp nachts das Mikrofon mehrmals allein aktiviert haben.

That's an old trick.
First they offer you a product for free. They build a huge userbase which is dependent on their service. Then they gradually take away what was once free or introduce changes which everyone hates. Despite that, users cling to the service.
Been there.

FYI: When you change your phone number linked to your #WhatsApp account, it will ask you if you want to inform your contacts about the change. This feature either straight does not work or is wonky. I'm still finding out that some people don't know my new number. The years later😩
Parents at my kids’ school are starting group chats and have chosen #WhatsApp as the platform, not paying attention to the long list of privacy issues. Is there a way to avoid succumbing to #Meta’s evil without being left out of potentially important information? I’m happy to try and encourage a shift to #Signal or something, but you know how hard it can be to convince others to change what they’re used to.
It's interesting to me that so many of us are regular smartphone users now, and we all use them in such different ways.
Figured I'd look at my phone's most used apps as I've never paid much attention to it before. Out of the 55 apps I've used in the last 6 days, yeah, my top 6 aren't a surprise to me at all. 🤣

I especially like that I can initially connect with people without giving out my mobile number.

A few people have recommended me #Telegram recently, i know, it's not one of the most secure apps, there are a few things about it I don't like, but it seems to be popular enough so people are using it these days, same as #WhatsApp, which I like much more, however like I have said for a couple of times, I don't like the fact that if I want to talk to someone on #WhatsApp I have to share my phone number, on Telegram I can hide it. Another alternative is #Discord, but I can't find any good, active servers/groups I could join. I won't mention other apps, because they are usually either inaccessible or paid. So are there any groups on Telegram related to the #Blind and #VisuallyImpaired I could join, if I decided to instal and use this app. I'm just curious. Thank you.
