Yeah, exactly

But when they talk, that signal is hackable, there is pretty much a difference to a phishing attack or an actual hack of the infrastructure

And as you said, with E2E encryption that shouldn't be really possible

If Russia decides to, it could glass a good part of Europe

And as they're getting more imperialistic and global warming also throws the world into tumult (is this a correct English word?), we will see more and more nations trying to get an advantage.
Sometimes because it's just about survival, sometimes because there are just opportunities

Same rights, and women can get into the military as well

But not the same required duties, as only men are required to do their military or civil duties to the state
Background to the thought is, that women already provide those duties by giving birth.

Yeah, it is sexist, but at least women aren't forbidden to join the military.
It's just not mandatory - for the year (or months? Don't know the current regulations in Germany) as men need to

Yeah, if you device is compromised, the apps on it are obviously as well.

But that still doesn't affect Signal as a network directly.
Which is imho a important distinction, as else all my communications could be compromised as well

Not saying that this isn't a threat vector, but it's not like my communications are automatically compromised, like with a bug or hacked signal server infrastructure

Signal is a publicly available app that provides encrypted communications, but it can be hacked.

As far as I've seen, the only attacks are phishing attacks to get a device linked

This is far from being hack-able in my books.

Did I miss something?

I'm not defending those dipshits, but I want to make sure, that my preferred communication platform isn't actually compromised

They could probably all just say, that the screenshot were photoshopped

It seems, that it doesn't matter to them anyway whatsoever...

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, ok, you're right with that

Still sucks as a customer as my prices are going through the roof and my heating and everything is electrical...

I'm just personally very much affected and always read, that prices are going down - but it seems, just not for me

Maybe better to get some basic self defense training
It's not always possible to carry your gun and just shooting someone isn't the answer anyway.
Break an arm, destroy a knee, kick some balls.
That should do the trick as well and is much more reasonable in most situations

And imho also more satisfying
Especially as you learn some confidence, as you then carry your weapon all the time and can use the force necessary for each situation
