Don't use messengers that demand your phone number. Period. Three Options out of many: Wire (uses email OR phone.) Briar (email)Tox (Antox app) ... entirely anonymous#Signal says 1,900 users’ phone numbers exposed by #Twilio breach-TechCrunch via @yogthos https://techcrunch.com/2022/08/15/signal-phone-number-exposed-twilio/

@atoponce @yogthos I prefer not to use phone numbers, and create my own 'social diagram', if I really need that, which isn't part of a messaging application. The idea of allowing any server or application that connects to the internet do that for me scares the living f+ck out of me. If messages require a super-high security level tox and Tails are a good combination. Just trash the tox account after use and destroy the computer because NO ORGANIZATION will protect you against a court order or state apparatus at the expense of their messenger operation, and signal, like tor, is already compromised afaic. I use it for the local foodnotbombs operation, and that's all. Coordinating free meals for poor folks.About tor being 'compromised'. Remember Jake Applebaum? The reason he quit tor and was gang vilified with a basket of lies and fabrications was almost certainly because he called the tor team on their preference for 'user-friendliness (gui etc) over putting funds towards security. Just call me a paranoid but to me 'user-friendly' attracts more victims to potentially spy on and Signal is on the same federal fund handout as torproject

@atoponce 🤣Yeah sure about the predator bs. They litter the computer industry btw. A night out at amy hipster bar in my bay area town proves that, so save it for someone whose ignorant. I watched closely and followed up on the complaints ... and as is typical with Institutional SLANDER, no charges were ever filed by anyone. There's a reason for that. The reason is simply their stories were fabrications.
