Hi all.
For a long long time I've been very happy with Signal, but have lately become rather annoyed that:
- it too often bugs me about about an update and forces me to do an update before I can write to my single/only recipient, and
- it too often bugs me about my pin code, even tho I never asked for such an annoying level of security.
These security measures are completely overkill for my/normal use, unnecessary, annoying and very aggressive. I'm an adult, and unless there's a super dangerous zeroday attack/vulnerability, I don't need constant forced updates, I don't want to retype a pin code for any reason or interval, and I certainly don't need to be told how I should run my system, when to upgrade or have software on my system that 'randomly' gets locked down for whatever reason.
Does anyone know how I can turn it off (Linux, Android) ?
Is there another client fork that don't force me to follow their idea of what security level is necessary ?
Thanks, and apols for negativity..
This isn't just caused by 'AI' datacenters. US on a strategic level, are trying to control the last 'western' tech supremacy to curb China's rise, so it is they who have constructed this situation with select hardware 'partners'.
All these corporations control/manipulate the hw market anyway, so easy to work with for the US regime.
We will likely have to wait a few years for China's production to rise and meet our global needs.
