Thanks for the Lemmy original, nice touch!

I see that logic

It’s nice, reliable and super quick to on board people since no sign up required. Technology seems interesting and novel, and it’s also transparent since it even shows the node path (in addition to being FOSS)

Do I trust it? No, but I don’t trust technology in general

Was there this much anger and many memes every election cycle when the US was in the middle east invading countries?

Yeah, watch the network traffic from Teams and kind hard not to think of them as data harvesters. In a day, there are close to a hundred servers involved that will leave your country for no functional reason

Removed by mod

I think the original comment might be referring to the fact that the US wouldn’t allow it even if it were the current sitting president’s stance. See the last 50 years for references

Thanks for the suggestion

Yeah their signatures and shasums are hosted on github. They’re a small team, which is probably why they rely on it

Here’s their android one at least https://github.com/oxen-io/session-android/releases

Yes, but I think the only clients are from Session themselves currently. All platforms, all independent and can have multiple accounts. Everything encrypted by default (and no way to send clear text)

Check out Session, built on Lokinet, no signups

Getsession.org

I am okay with that, although not sure if I would have another opinion under different circumstances

Source?

Google owns Nest, it’s just a guess since we know they train AI on this data

We don’t post in the language. They don’t speak the language. I specifically study only offline and rarely have a cellphone on me. I only speak it in person to strangers since I’m too shy to speak to any friends who speak it and we have no new friends who speak it

Assume I performed my opsec properly, how could they get this information?

Yeah, so a mitigation would be to remove the GSM chip and be WiFi only, with a Faraday cage to ensure the WiFi is not on by accident or the software is backdoored. Also would need to remove the mic and speakers to avoid any cross chatter

But at that point might as well just have a laptop with external WiFi only

So your theory is the there is no opsec if any cellphones or anything with GPS are involved?

What I’m saying is I don’t have an internet profile like they do. I have never researched this language on the internet and have only purchased books for it in cash without a cellphone on me, so this specific overlap is weird

I’m not saying “oh wow, the NSA has a profile on me, how??”, I’m saying, I have kept this specific data private from my direct internet connection, how are the data brokers targeting family member devices

Yeah I’m more on the actual research paper route, I need science and not opinion or speculation. But with that, I’ll probably take a look since community lead efforts can be good too, thanks for sharing

Yeah only one that would match would be geolocation, and I’m a pretty offline first person, so no overlap in internet history since my footprint is pretty much Lemmy this summer.

Which makes me think it could be all the AI smart cameras recording interactions

I can translate Russian, I’d love to see their research
