@ryanol No, Cellebrite cannot decrypt Signal communications. What they sell is a forensic device cops connect to insecure, unlockable phones to download a bunch of popular apps' data more easily than doing it manually. They just added Signal to that app list. That's it. There's no magic.

“Is it in my shoe?” he asked me at one point, taking his blue Nike off and peering at it. “You have to tell me. I don’t want to destroy my shoe looking for it.”

@giacomozucco Zcash is the opposite: a decentralized, functional chain with a specific (and useful) purpose: enabling private transactions, something it does extremely well, even now (years later). I actually used it back then, and it worked.

The true epiphany is that you’re the one pulling the strings: you have more agency than your push-notifications would have you believe. edwardsnowden.substack.com/p/conspiracy-p…

@PLT_cheater @elonmusk Today, internet businesses need to be looking at user-generated content as a liability, not an asset.
The first movers to (honestly) show governments their company *legitimately* lacks the ability to unilaterally delete inconvenient speech from the internet will benefit.

Reporters following up on this story should look at the burning question @washingtonpost inexplicably failed to raise: how the IC transitioned from subverting crypto via foreign cut-outs to corrupting domestic companies like RSA (reuters.com/article/2013/1…) (and through them NIST). twitter.com/Snowden/status…

The idea that some overly ambitious staffer thinks they can put Americans' elected representives in phone jail over a glorified *budget meeting* is more than a little offensive.

This is not a maximalist position, it is simply realism. You aren't even breathing the same air as a strong position until you reach criminal liability for involvement in the trade.

@rj_gallagher You do know Amnesty & Citizenlab actually examined phones whose numbers were on the list and found forensic evidence of Pegasus, right? Pretty irresponsible to amplify an obviously false statement.

@PLT_cheater @elonmusk Twitter's core political problem is liability for content they exclusively control.
By moving user-generated content to the Nostr protocol (and getting encrypted DMs for free), while retaining control of their own front-end experience, government must go chase somebody else.
