  4. Termux

    • platform: Android
    • type: sh environment
    • goal: have the power of linux sh in Android
    • license: GNU GPL Open Source
    • development: active
    • users: more than I can imagine

    Termux which is the powerful Linux sh environment for Android is constantly under attack by Google

    I've installed it on many different Androids with different versions and classes of the Android operating system

    The direct reaction of the Play Store daemon is the same.

    Warning Termux is an unsafe program!

    wtf?

    Why does google lie and say that Termux is a program that should not be trusted?

    This is a false and blatant deceptive action of Google, who is snooping on the Android phone, your personal property, because Termux gives you the flexibility to look at things which Google tries to hide from you on your own phone!

    The Termux distribution is regularly patched and updated just like any other regular Linux distribution which is properly maintained

    Keep installing Termux it gives you freedom on your Androids

  5. [en] Signal #messenger: "two practical attacks that break the integrity properties of #Signal in its advertised #threat model" - Patched

    Paper #ETHZ

    "... protocol for resolving identities based on usernames and on phone numbers introduced a #vulnerability that allows a malicious server to inject arbitrary messages into one-to-one conversations under specific circumstances"

    "The second #attack is even more severe. It arises from Signal's Sealed Sender (SSS) feature, designed to allow sender identities to be hidden ... a combination of two errors in the #SSS implementation in #Android allows a #malicious server to #inject arbitrary messages into both one-to-one and group conversations."

  6. Justice #ClarenceThomas, writing for the 5 conservative justices, said the federal #law that generally shields the #PostalService from lawsuits over missing, lost & undelivered #mail includes “the intentional nondelivery of mail.”

    In dissent, Justice Sonia #Sotomayor wrote that while the protection against lawsuits is broad, it does not extend to situations when the decision not to deliver mail “was driven by #malicious reasons.” Justice Neil #Gorsuch joined his 3 liberal colleagues in dissent.
