Nice terms of service:

Access to this page is granted solely on the basis of accepting the right of Mil to turn up at your house at any time and stay for as long as he likes. This agreement takes precedence over any local, national or international laws which might otherwise apply in your area of residence - and it was drawn up by Disney's lawyers, so don't embarrass yourself by trying to appeal, eh?

I agree that signal has a more robust security model. What I mean is that itbhasbalso habe risks, and a lot of people are ignoring it.

The backdoor could be a sleeping function activated from outside to targets of interest or 'special' updates from the google store (i.e.: with the help of google install a different version of the app to the target). But I'm not a security nor android expert, and it's all theoretical if this attack vector is possible, but I think that is unlikely.

Also, if the NATO country where I live wants to spy my mobile, it would use Pegasus 🤷🏽‍♀️

Off topic: The Signal reproducible builds don't work since, at least, may.

There were 15 million estimated deaths (direct or indirect) by the end of 2021.

Signal can add backdoors to their own app and, if the app get compromised (or the device) the security of the encryption model is not relevant. It's the reason because I see comparable Signal and Telegram.

Signal is open source, but (info based in this 3 years old thread on f-droid):

  1. Have binary blobs and propietary dependencies.
  2. Don't let reproducible builds.
  3. It's hostile to forks (they blocked libreSignal from their servers)
  4. Don't want independent builds from f-droid (nor any fork in f-droid)

Which no seems FOSS friendly.

nd when a judge or a 3 letters agency will request to Signal that they want access to the messages that somebody will send from a date?

It's their app, and they can do it. Do you think that they will refuse?

At least one of your down votes is for being racist and ableist. Could you remove it?

That's a false dichotomy, there are other political options outside the two factions (republicans and democrats) of the US Bourgeoisie party.

Hiroito was never judged by those crims. I suspect that fight against fascism was not, and never has been, a priority of the U.S.

The US intention was clearly to commit mass murder of civilians (most of them members of the working class): They threw the bomb in the city center, not in the few nonstrategic military barracks nor in the military industries, and less than 10% of the deaths were militaries.

See, by example, https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/hiroshima-and-myths-military-targets-and-unconditional-surrender

It's a problem at least in Barcelona and in their near cities. Youth people and most of the working class can't pay the price to get a home there. A lot of housing has moved as a tourist service (airbnb... ) missing their social use.

And thanks to democratic centralism, USSR created its own bourgeoisie.

I'm not aware of that theory, could you elaborate it, or link to some Marxist that developed it?

The most famous Marxist critic with the USSR was Leon Trotsky, who accused the USSR to be a «state capitalism», but he defended democratic centralism —see, by example: Leon Trotsky (1937). On Democratic Centralism and the Regime (1937)—.

Also, Democratic Centralism has been a strong organization model against infiltration and in case of persecution, and a fast decision model in that circumstances and in pre-revolutionary or revolutionary stages.
