One of the greatest heroes we have to thank are Diffie and Hellman who put up a fight when US government went against their research on public key cryptography. But I suppose the reason NSA was delaying was they had to…
"Often hear that the reason today’s Internet is not more secure is that the early designers failed to imagine that security could ever matter." Related to this, you should definitely watch Moxie Marlinspike's (lead dev…
It's also unethical to solve world hunger by feeding the poor to the hungry. If defending is done not by installing firewalls, but by spying on everyone in case they do something bad, you have a huge problem.
Not sure if the article claims Eric Schmidt was ousted. But Schmidt has worked for the pentagon since 2016 http://money.cnn.com/2016/03/02/technology/eric-schmidt-pent...
Aral Balkan has excellent things to say about charades such as "privacy on facebook": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jh8supIUj6c#t=34m10s All in all, this is a great talk, I highly recommend you watch from start.
What are the benefits of decentralized servers over p2p? "Metadata concern is bogus" yet the linked documentation explicitly says bridges expose metadata, and that home servers expose metadata. One advantage of…
So, what are you using the 15,800 MB of RAM for?
Fully agree and I want to elaborate. After SHA-1 broke, IETF's OpenPGP work group have failed the community by wrestling hand over what hash function should be in 5th revision of fingerprint protocol. When they couldn't…
You mean, Matrix does not pose arbitrary limitations to clients that want to use end-to-end encryption. Clients that do not yet feature it by default, and that give huge warnings when you try to enable it. Clients that…

Quoting Moxie: THere's nothing to be broken because there's no end-to-end encryption to begin with. Do you think nation state hackers publish their finding about the trove of private messages telegram's vast server…
Telegram is exactly as secure as email. SSL where third party email servers can see your traffic.
"I have yet to see satisfactory cryptanalysis that shows a weakness (theoretical or real) in the protocol": https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/1177.pdf
Yet the developer is world famous for his security work, not for something like inventing Facebook for Russians. Are you sure you can handle 100% anonymous connection to servers of apps that could at any time identify…
