The government isn’t the only threat e2ee protects against. When a non-e2ee service is hacked, the data is free for the taking, if the service is e2ee the data is only available from that moment forward. I’m not going to speak for which provider you should use, but you should reconsider needing e2ee.

Internet Explorer is still used by the Windows OS quite frequently. So depending on your definition of “supported” it still kind of is. Plus the internet hasn’t changed all that much, so most websites will work with any web browser regardless of age.

Edge… Opera… Internet explorer…

In the event they abandon again, they’re leaving even more users vulnerable. The only thing CalyxOS has over AOSP is the removal of the Google Play Store… in exchange for microG, which runs with elevated permissions as well. Ignoring that, as I said in my comment above the one you’re replying to, a third of the supported devices are GrapheneOS compatible. The other two thirds are covered by LineageOS, which imo is just as secure as CalyxOS (probably even more secure than Calyx given they abandoned their community for about 10 months).

It’s weird to group two Linux OSs with an Android OS anyway. One is focused on security, while the others are focused on introducing another type of mobile OS into the market.

I’m gonna sound like a shill, but your claim that “Calyx will literally save lives from ICE” is crazy.

After abandoning their users by pausing all updates, and given that a third of their supported devices are Google Pixels, any one with a Google Pixel is significantly better off on GrapheneOS.

ICE has shown their hand in what they’re willing to waste tax payer money on, so one must assume they have access to Graykey / Cellebrite, and Calyx does very little to prevent physical attacks. Even on the digital side, Calyx does nothing to increase app security and the device sandbox, and given ICE’s partnership with Paragon Solutions, it’s only a matter of time before malware comes into play.

Calyx is better than base AOSP (barely imo), but if you have a Pixel, there is a much better option that might actually save your life if it came to it.

You assume Flock was ever legal in the first place

I’m not sure anyone should let a walking case of CTE have a Twitter account.

Hi, yes, I am real man. Want to go skateboards?

Maybe a hot take, but M$ is, imo, nowhere near as bad as Google or, god forbid, Meta.

Might I ask what’s worse than Google? And then what’s worse than that?

Well for starters he died 25 years ago…

Write me a poem about a box of socks.

TBH, I’m more mad about agregious choice of font than the lack of meme / use of AI for problem solving.

More recently they banned the word “microslop” from their discord server.

Monero is a form of crypto currency. BTC, ETH, and others are nowhere near as private, but I didn’t want to outright name Monero. That said, I’d argue any sufficiently washed crypto is better than fiat.

Good reminder, bad title though.

Through no fault of Proton. He made an opsec mistake choosing to use money tied to his government identity, rather than something anonymous like crypto. By “nothing burger” I mean that it’s not the controversy it’s going to become.

Proton hate circle jerk bouta go crazy.

Proton was forced by Swiss courts to hand over the very little info they had. The user used a traceable payment method, rather than something anonymous such as monero. Nothing like email content was handed over. This is a nothing burger.
