European cops hacked the encrypted phone provider Sky in 2021. More and more cases in the U.S. are using that mass of collected messages.

      You’re trusting whoever runs the hardware that they’re not snooping on you

        Correct… So put EVERYONE into one basket… Or split everyone up into multiple baskets…

        Now I dunno about your mom… But mine told me to not put all my eggs into one basket.

          How the fuck would you confirm that? Maybe the sysadmin is running a forked version of matrix that just says it’s encrypted but actually logs everything in clear text.

            I don’t think that’s how it works? It’s the client application that has the key for the end to end encryption, not the server. I don’t think you need to trust the matrix server you use? I could be wrong, I don’t know matrix particularly well.

              Why do people phish, dumpster dive, or social engineer? So they can snoop and grab anything of value.

              What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?
