Messenger-App Signal droht mit Rückzug aus Frankreich wegen Drogenhandelsgesetz
Durch ein neues Gesetz in Frankreich können Behörden Zugriff auf eigentlich verschlüsselte Kommunikation erhalten. Dagegen regt sich online massiver Widerstand.
Meta is collecting your #WhatsApp metadata 
WhatsApp shares:
Are you already using one of these #PrivateMessengers?
Zugang zu diversen Internet-Plattformen in der Türkei eingeschränkt
Online-Angebote wie X, YouTube und Social Media sind in der Türkei nur noch stark eingeschränkt verfügbar. Anlass dürften Proteste gegen die Regierung sein.
#meta 's #whatsapp is on such downfall in The Netherlands over #privacy concerns that they feel the need to make a statement.
Funnily enough the statement they make now on using the #metadata to #safeguard users against #spyware is such BS.
You should use #Signal too.
Signal has a feature to report spam by users too and actually can take action where required without sacrafising user privacy.
Es gibt sie, die alternativen Social-Media Plattformen. Du musst nur Aktiv werden.
"So wirst du unabhängig von Tech-Milliardären"
This bothers me a lot so I needed to #vent about it

Viele schimpfen auf Musk und Trump, dennoch sehe ich kaum jemanden, der auch dementsprechend konsequent handelt, auch bereit ist seine jahrelange Gewohnheit aufzugeben. Zum Beispiel #Facebook und #Instagram. Aber auch #whatsapp müßte verabschiedet werden. Es gibt sehr gute Alternativen! #trump #musk
Scholen doen WhatsApp in de ban vanwege privacyzorgen, adviseren overstap naar #Signal
@heiligen pasarse de #WhatsApp y #Telegram a #Signal no corta el mal de raíz, es mejor pasarse a alternativas descentralizadas con la que los holandeses o cualquier otro país podría alcanzar soveranía tecnológica, algunos ejemplos de dichas alternativas son: #ArcaneChat (https://arcanechat.me), #DeltaChat, #XMPP, #Matrix, etc
Carpe DM 
End-to-end encryption = online safety. It keeps what we send on messaging apps secure from hackers and predators.

With the whole #ukpol on #e2ee forcing #apple to disable #adp and #usa going mad under #trump many seem to switch to #Signal over #WhatsApp.
But it seems still most people do not realize that if you use #Outlook, #Gmail, #Yahoo etc those very same governments have full access to everything that ever went through your mailbox.
Over at @privacyguides we have some good recommendations to switch to.
Do you want hackers and predators to slide into your DMs?
That's what would happen if message scanning tech is forced onto messaging apps.
Ofcom's consultation on powers that'd break end-to-end encryption closes on Monday!

@Some_Emo_Chick The best option for messaging is IMO Threema. Its only two disadvantages are that it's not (yet) running under LineageOS and that it's not free but costs €/$/CHF 5.- once, but NO recurring fees. Just five bucks. It is even possible to pay anonimously with cash!
Is protecting your data worth 5 bucks? (I know, it's not really a question.)
Message scanning tech on everyone's phone would expose us to dangerous new threats.
How does that achieve online safety?
Tell Ofcom NOT to break end-to-end encryption in their consultation, ending Monday 10 March.
Use our tool to say #PracticeSafeText

Save Encryption. Save the World 
Only by blocking message scanning technology on messaging apps can we ensure online safety!
End-to-end encryption prevents predators and hackers from weeding their way into our private lives.
We must #PracticeSafeText
