lol I sign up for #WhatsApp to chat with some people we’re working with in Taiwan, and immediately get banned after sending my first reply to them. What a garbage app 🤪
“Providing this data as input for Lavender undermines their claim that #WhatsApp is a private messaging app,” he wrote. “It is beyond obscene and makes #Meta complicit in Israel’s killings of ‘pre-crime’ targets and their families, in violation of international humanitarian law and Meta’s publicly stated commitment to human rights.
#ICQ will turn off soon. I grew up with it’s weird aoooo and still know my quite long ID by heart. It was sensational, in contrast to the other, hacky (also cool) #IRC.
It was the first DM app I and everyone around me used and loved. #WhatsApp never came close.
"This undisclosed WhatsApp vulnerability lets governments see who you message."
And when it comes to metadata, unfortunately - that's by design.
"Metadata — information about the who, when, and where of conversations — has come to hold immense value to intelligence, military, and police agencies around the world."
End-to-end encrypted messages isn't all you should seek out from any app that claims to be private.
Palestinian digital rights group Sada Social accused Meta, which owns WhatsApp, of fueling "Lavender" artificial intelligence system used by the Israeli military to kill Palestinian individuals within the Gaza enclave
The group diligently observes the collective dissent voiced by numerous Meta employees, encompassing #Facebook, #Instagram, WhatsApp, #Messenger, and #Threads, regarding the Meta #company's complicity in the #genocidal war against the #Gaza Strip, its endorsement of the Israeli occupation, and its fueling of the "Lavender" #artificialintelligence system used by the Israeli military to kill #Palestinian individuals within the Gaza enclave.
• I've actually had an easier time keeping up with Slack than in Slack itself
• Initially I ran clients side by side but Beeper updates just as fast and I've since stopped running most except for Discord which I use for calls
• Even so, it's great to run it in parallel to Discord, because it's easier to text chat in Beeper while in a video call

Business titans privately urged #NYC mayor to use police on #Columbia protesters, chats show
A #WhatsApp chat started by some wealthy #Americans after the Oct. 7 #Hamas attack reveals their focus on Mayor #EricAdams and their work to shape #USA opinion of the #Gaza war.
#WhatsApp uses the open-source #Signal protocol… However, encryption isn’t the whole story… WhatsApp and, by extension, all #Meta organizations know you sent something, when you sent it, and who you sent it to…
I know #WhatsApp is popular amongst Americans 🇺🇸 who travel outside of the country, but I doubt #Meta will replace #iMessage in the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸 in the near future.
#Apple has already lost to #Facebook Messenger in #America 🇺🇸, so in a sense @zuck has already won.
bon matin masto : aurais-tu un article - en anglais si possible - qui explique en quoi il vaut mieux utiliser #Signal que #Whatsapp ? 🙏
J'en ai marre de me faire charrier par mes collègues : je n'ai visiblement pas les arguments pour les personnes qui ne sont pas du tout sensibilisées contre les gafam :blobfearful:.
In another context, there was a discussion, in recent past, that some members of Indian government suggested taking the extreme measure of blocking Proton due to a hoax bomb threat that were sent through Proton Mail. Finally it did not happen.
I believe that that Meta will not pull out of India and the existing encryption standards of WhatsApp will not change for Indian users. With more than 500 million active users in India, the stakes are too high from either side.
I was excited by the #Europe#DMA news back in March, when will we finally be able to communicate with #WhatsApp users from other platforms like #Matrix ?
