I'm pretty sure that only media content is stored unencrypted, the text database should be encrypted.

Some (maybe) useful sources:

Q: Why do I have to enable Google Password Manager as an additional provider in order to make it work on Android?

[-] byte1000@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 months ago

I didn't know this app existed. Anyway, the project was discontinued.

Can any of them prevent a Pegasus-style attack?

If I understand correctly, Apple does it by disabling common attack vectors, remote fonts for example.

I'm glad you've edited you're blog so now the country of Qatar is mentioned, which was not the case before. At least there's some progress here.

But I believe that your description of the situation is currently still misleading, especially the title "Israel funded Hamas". Again, it might just be a language issue, but It seems like your claim is that Israel took money from its own budget, and gave it to Hamas (directly or indirectly). If that's actually you're claim, there's no source you've cited that actually says that. Is that your claim? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

It's hard for me to tell if you've actually addressed the point I was making, because all you did is adding quotations. So I don't know if you've accepted my correction that it was not Israeli money nor US tax payers’ money, but in fact was Qatari money, just as your sources say.

So to be clear, I'm not arguing about the fact that Netanyahu's strategy was to allow Qatari money to be handed to Hamas in Gaza, for the purpose of preventing peace talks with Fatah's Palestinian Authority. That is obviously true.

[11] Haaretz:

It’s important to remember that without those funds from Qatar (and Iran), Hamas would not have had the money to maintain its reign of terror, and its regime would have been dependent on restraint.

In practice, the injection of cash (as opposed to bank deposits, which are far more accountable) from Qatar, a practice that Netanyahu supported and approved, has served to strengthen the military arm of Hamas since 2012.

Cool.

And what about identifiable and personal information? Such as physical address, phone number, full name etc? Is there any requirement to provide it to you or them?

Yes, I've never used it with Coinbase. I don't live in the US, and I don't think Coinbase is even available in my country.

Moon/PayWithMoon was way better, convince me otherwise.

I understand what you said. I'm saying that most of the time, what happens is actually the opposite of what you said.

and it keeps on asking me to update proton mail to 3.0.16, and this version is not on the play store.

Version 3.0.16 has been on the Play Store for quite some time, I've got it updated through Aurora Store. Since July 25th to be precise. So it took them about 17 days to publish it to GitHub, after pushing it to Play Store.

The Play Store doesn't always push an update at the same time to all users. So instead, they have a Staged Rollout. Here's an example from this article, it's not related specifically to Proton.

I think they're pushing the update to the Play Store before they publish it to GitHub.

That's so annoying, as an F-Droid user, to almost always be one version behind. It also might have security implications that I'm not aware of.
