I am aware which was one of the big sells for Graphene, to me, over LineageOS.

calyx seems interesting since they allow for bootloader relocking after install. I'll take a look at that, thank you!

I'm in an awkward spot with my Pixel, I don't want to continue buying Pixel hardware but there doesn't appear to be a viable hardware vendor that supports GrapheneOS, which I really prefer because of the security and "not google" implications. It's pretty upsetting tbh

okay, so self host it if that is part of your concern/threat model. the Signal server code is open to the public, you can see and download it here.

It's been proven that Signal doesn't have chats or chat metadata in court but this is still a gross violation of OPSEC and all manner of federal law, which I'm not even qualified to talk about. In either case this is hundreds of times worse than the Clinton email server.

Signal is incredibly secure but it's the wrong tool for this application. you can have the best shovel ever and it still won't cut a wedding cake effectively.

the Signal E2E algorithm is great but this was a gross OPSEC failure on the part of the feds, with the fact that they were using Signal being a huge extra embarrassing factoid (not to mention that if they'd have followed protocol, this would have never been possible).

the most hilarious thing on display here is that the Signal protocol is not to blame. this was an OPSEC failure on the part of the feds. Signal is known to be secure but it's a grossly inappropriate tool for this use case.

TLDR: not Signal's fault, the feds are just entirely too stupid.

another sex crime charge has hit the republican party 😞

this admin hating on trans women and banning them from competing in sports while entirely overlooking trans men on testosterone who, given the legislative focus on transfem people, could still compete in women's sports (theoretically) while on testosterone underscores how fucking little this admin knows about how this actually works scientifically.

after all why wouldn't "women pretending to be men" be taking testosterone and competing and dominating in sports if that's what this is all about?

Hell yeah Gizmodo, go get 'em, we need more of this petty hating.
