Yeah, my Android doesn’t have WhatsApp, I neither have Google apps. It’s a degoogled OS. I feel free and things works, even my default web browser on my Android has NoScript (JavaScript blocker), to make it safer. With Apple… you are sold.

Sadly yeah, I was just like “screaming with anger” about what Apple does, and seems everyone just agrees and keep playing their game.

Just saying their OS sucks, bad designs, buggy UIs, etc. They don’t even decent software, and I already saw many stupid bugs.

And it comes down to a fundamental question: Will the European Commission follow through with its intent to right-size Apple’s abuse of power? Or will the DMA be nice in theory, but in practice, have no substantive meaning for most developers?

They already do that, they can say whatever, they will be isolated with their shitty Apple products and if they want decent browsers then they will need to use decent systems. Apple can’t abuse of their power and force us to follow their abusive rules, they can’t even have a decent UI desktop. They are so bad programmers.

Yeah I understand, but if Apple is fucking up with our development, not only for Firefox, for any developer that makes apps for phones… why keep following their abusive rules? When I say “stopping developing apps for Apple” I mean, any developer that dislikes the abusive rules of Apple and fees. If we abandon the system, the iOS users will need to move to Android or other systems that are more friendly for developers.

Why not stopping developing apps for Apple systems? Fuck them.

Yeah, posting google links on Privacy community, hahaha. You can use this https://redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=RyirQOCUUK8

“privacy is a right”

Mind blow. 🤯

Yeah, and I was checking the web and I can’t see much info about how they secure our data. I just can’t trust them. 🙄 I hardly trust ProtonVPN already. 😄

I think he got problems because of piracy/copyright issues, not because of privacy.

Security and privacy often overlap. e2e secures messages content from unwanted eyes. And therefore also benefits privacy of course.

You were talking about security, not about privacy.

Telegram and WhatsApp both use TLS - so in don’t see the advantage for Telegram there.

I’m not talking about privacy, if you read the first replies from this thread you will see I expose some examples how easy is to exploit WhatsApp, that’s a security issue, not a privacy issue.

But to be fair I shouldn’t have started to talk about e2e if your initial concern was exploit count and serivity. (Which I didn’t compare between the two messenger’s)

Remember you said: “like Telegram doesn’t encrypt most messages therefore by design is already not secure and user data is readable.”

And I replied to you that no one said Telegram was unsafe, there were no exploits or any security issues, while on WhatsApp, many issues have been found.

Returning to your initial phrase:

Security and privacy often overlap. e2e secures messages content from unwanted eyes. And therefore also benefits privacy of course.

“secures messages content from unwanted eyes” is called privacy. Stop mixing the two concepts.

I think you are mixing concepts, encryptions isn’t related to “secure” but to “privacy”. On my example, your data on bank is encrypted via SSL which the server has the private key to read it, but it is encrypted. Telegram is the same, your messages are being encrypted by a public key owned by the server, but it is encrypted, just not end to end.

Unless you get an expensive car, I think they do that to reduce expenses. Expensive cars have dedicated CPU for that, but they still communicate with the head unit for online data.

When I worked on auto-maker on the head units, they were integrated on the chip, the ones that had a sim slot where you can insert and extract it were the ones for development. Recent cars, their GPS and screen media menus uses the Linux inside the modem chip.

It is secure as secure is logging into your bank account from your web browser.

No one said the opposite, while on WhatsApp they had several vulnerabilities that allowed attackers to get the user phone control.

An example: https://thehackernews.com/2021/04/new-whatsapp-bug-couldve-let-attackers.html

But there were many more vulnerabilities or “features” that WhatsApp allowed attackers or governments to get into user data. While I haven’t read anything about against Telegram security.

WhatsApp will be never private and secure, while Telegram will be never private. 😁
