https://www.wired.com/story/neo-nazis-flee-telegram-encrypted-app-simplex/SimpleX developer Evgeny Poberezkin claims SimpleX is "100 percent private by design" and that even if he wanted to, he couldn’t access information about user IP addresses. [Using a trusted VPN or Tor doesn't hurt. -Ed.]
Backdoors in encrypted software are illegal due to a recent European Court of Human Rights decision.
Poberezkin notes that they never anticipated groups of more than 50 people using their app. We at PSG have
1100 following our channel, and over 600 in our chat. This explains the short, barely noticeable delay syncing messages when reconnecting after a weekend of fishing.
One thing to take away from the article is that invite links can be disabled by the devs, and files can be manually removed from servers that SimpleX devs are running. This seems to be in explicit reference to CSAM. WIRED journalist David Gilbert seems to imply we are distributors of child pornography.
We have reasonable grounds to believe that glownigger journalists from the "Institute for Strategic Dialogue" are responsible for posting the aforementioned child abuse material, as well as vocalizing threats to specific individuals. One of these disingenuous faggots goaded some of our more fluoridated chat members to say they want to kill the president, as that "proves the app is safe."
Look, we understand we are a rare voice of reason in our community at large. To this day, I am surprised to be surprised when people sperg in our comments about how a
PRIVACY AND SECURITY CHANNEL doesn't love the idea of meeting up with strangers.
Anyway, moving forward, there will be no tolerance of fedposting comments. It accomplishes nothing but trouble. Keep your inactionable threats vague, people. You're worse than children.
And David, you're always welcome to
join our chat and talk with us directly.
