NEW - Telegram has released user data to the Federal Criminal Police Office of Germany in several cases, Spiegel reports. The NGO CeMAS monitors 3,000 German-language channels & groups for "disinformation, antisemitism, and right-wing extremism." spiegel.de/netzwelt/apps/…
@disclosetv Telegram was never secure @moxie has been warning about Telegram storing data in plain text for a long time. @signalapp is secure
@kumatomoon @disclosetv @moxie @signalapp Too bad they have zero server side encryption. Meaning that if someone was listening / snooping on your conversation in real time they can easy as day on Signal. But it’s still better than WhatsApp + Telegram etc. @xx_network has the most secure protocol atm but prolly still 🗑
@stocksultan @disclosetv @moxie @signalapp @xx_network @moxie ^ this doesn’t sound right?
@kumatomoon @stocksultan It's not. Signal never has access to ~any user data. There's no need for "server side encryption" (whatever that is), because what touches the server is already encrypted.
@moxie @stocksultan LEGEND. Thanks. Keep fighting the good fight 👊🙏
