I would be inclined to agree on the software front, but for naming things going forward people should be conscientious and not force disabled folks to take them to task over something which makes them feel miserable and dismissed.

They failed in their project to steal drug dealer entrapment business from Telegram (which has similar fake e2ee chats) and decided to close up shop.

It means a person who has a disability affecting their gait, or making them otherwise unable to locomote, but acting like it’s the namesake is ridiculous and takes away from the credibility of people fighting the reactionary movements in software development, which are much deeper than clunky acronyms. Demanding rebranding from projects fighting for relevance isn’t helping anything.

The kink people, if they are still doing that, can come up with a new term for it. How about “restraintcel” see that was fun

Oh you must be FUN at parties, just try Gimp it’s awesome

Beast mode

🙀

Appreciate you bringing that up it’s very relevant to dealing with some teacher lib racism in the immediate future as well

I thought it had something to do with stopping Ansarallah’s Red Sea blockade, or maybe it was murdering fishermen in the Caribbean? The mind wanders doesn’t it

You ought to be tormented by ghosts of Filipino tuna fishermen for such a remark. Firstoids are completely delusional.

It’a fucked up how Xi Jinping ate all of the healthcare with a giant spoon.

I have no idea why anyone would even trust a company that passes off email as secure. That’s just not the way it was designed.

I think we can guess how little we ought to trust Mullvad by looking at its server list. They have Israel, the Baltic Israels, and the Asian Israels. Egregiously obvious.

Nope and Tuta doesn’t want phone numbers. I recommend it for quick stuff. They clearly track IPs but that’s easy to work around.

It’s not something you can avoid by simply not using a credit card. Proton can, at their discretion (such as if you use VPNs outside the imperial core, in which case it happens reliably and instantly) lock you out of your entire account to demand a phone number. Vanishingly small % of people will not have their personal identity exposed by cell data & be ready to deal with losing their account on short notice. It’s the same shady tactic that Discord uses to get phone numbers from reluctant people and it should not be tolerated.

This is basically a parody of the problems with NGO corporate compensation, yes, but I feel like everyone is avoiding the elephant in the room & wishing goodwill to people making e2ee messaging that is only safe for the US government to use. Ask yourself, would the German prime minister even trust this shit?

It’s not like Delta Chat main development team is even exempt from this, not sure if OP is aware of this but they want the EU to save them. Fat chance guys! Open source developers need a workers government or total independence, or they will discover they are political tools that can be dispensed with when no longer necessary. Just look at the recent pressure on Linux to eject Russian developers.

CEOs need to be constantly threatened with execution by a dictatorship of the proletariat

You guys are out of your gd minds I’m not going to sit here and explain what a mode of production is to you, or that executives are not proletarians. Jesus H. Christ

Kind of inane of me to add, but I like how this guy has started doing “praywalls” and openly threatening his readers to leave unless they donated to Palestine.

Ah yes, the US and EU, the only countries in the world. Well, I’m going to have to pass on accepting an impromptu debate invite from a random reply guy. Keep looking up to the OG Asian Israel if you like. Their present is in fact your nation’s future. I hope you enjoy!
