@sjosjo @GMac @JensSpahnpasta
That’s a very strong assertion and, given an open-source client and a documented protocol, one that is very easy to prove if true. So I presume you can point at what, in the Signal protocol, is a backdoor in the encryption.
@david_chisnall @GMac @JensSpahnpasta I agree with @adbenitez
In any case, the fact that Americans are very hush hush on any quantum tech advancement, leads me to believe they are already employing their qubits to crack every and all encryption. Whether it’s true or not, I don’t really care, it is however very plausible. In any case every bit and byte of my data that does *not* traverse into US controlled networks is a definite plus in my book.
