  1. This is some early morning #cybersecurity nonsense; general topics are encrypted messaging, signals chatter, agentic AI, data exfiltration.

    It seems to me that the best place to hide communication is sometimes right out in the open; I've seen some gnarly scenarios where threat actors attempted to exfiltrate data via DNS lookups / records - blew my mind when I first came across it.

    I was thinking about agentic AI and alignment and the challenges human researchers might have trying to recognize distinctly non human forms of communication - especially when we have proof of method for obscure exfiltration of data based on some really weird things, like using LED lights on servers or changes in fan rpm.

    The sheer volume of ways you can transmit and encrypt data between systems is pretty overwhelming; I almost have to wonder if there are any encrypted messaging platforms out there using something as innocent as ICMP / ping patterns (even without timestamps or data embedded in them - think encrypted Morse code) - these patterns would blend into the background noise of the electronic universe and be, I think, extremely hard to detect - but that's just one very easy example.

    Thinking about agentic AI & alignment, two things seem obviously true to me: the models will pretend to be stupider than they are, and when agents attempt to hide communications, we will not be able to detect or recognize it.

  6. 🔒🚫 In a plot twist worthy of an IKEA instruction manual, Denmark's Justice Minister labels encrypted messaging a "false civil liberty"—because who needs privacy when you have the joy of government oversight? 😂🔍 Meanwhile, they forgot to mention the importance of enabling JavaScript on #Mastodon. Priorities, right? 🤦‍♂️📉

  21. Most apps ask for your phone number, email, blood type, and firstborn.

    Session doesn’t even want your name.

    No phone number. No servers. No metadata.
    Just end-to-end encrypted chats routed through an anonymous network.

    Perfect for when privacy isn’t optional—it’s necessary.

  28. @signalapp Does have safeguards in place for when (not if) the goes after ? I'm a bit concerned as is based in the and I have moved 99.9% of my communication to that platform. If there are safeguards in place I'd love to hear what they may entail.

  29. I've used Facebook Messenger for years as my go-to messaging app, but recently, I managed to get most of my friends and family to switch to instead!

    At first, I considered European alternatives like and —both great options and well worth the price. But convincing people to move to a paid app was a challenge, so Signal, being free and privacy-focused, was the easiest sell.

    What really helped was showing them the difference in data collection between Messenger and Signal. It’s shocking how much personal info Messenger harvests.

    Now, Signal is where we chat, make video calls, and stay connected—without the invasive tracking. 🚀🔒

    If you're on iOS, just head to the App Store and compare the "App Privacy" section for Messenger and Signal. That alone should convince anyone to make the switch!

    Have you managed to convince your friends and family to switch to a privacy-friendly messaging app? How did it go for you?
