@AhjazKaramat @bencgvideos @signalapp and if the state decides to block such apps, you will have a problem...

@signalapp Please I've updated my signal app but it's still running slow. Is that a technical issue or maybe Google play store is sabotaging it for me?

@GwynbleiddiuM @signalapp @windscribecom (their twitter says „meme focused“ but if you look into their privacy policy and comparisons with other VPNs it gets clear that they are good. Only real downside is that they‘re based in Canada, but if you‘re not doing anything the FBI doesn‘t like, that shouldn‘t be a problem)

@signalapp Unfortunately, severe censorship is rampant in Iran, and Facebook has always supported the Iranian government. There is not much help from the international community to deal with this situation. Thank you for your effort.

So, its didnt let me login into my original account, i signed up to @signalapp, if there anybody out there i chat with, who wants to fill out their contact list, pm me.....so we can support privacy in chat. I also like the idea that it will soon offer contact backups.

@theyblinked @signalapp I’m worried the people running signal are going to get the app into trouble and cause regulators to try and wreak it. The addition of PINs was already troubling.

(@Lowpass) reported
@theyblinked @signalapp I’m actually pretty surprised someone hasn’t built it already. Distributed mesh Twitter. The problem I suspect is there’s not practical way to index it. BitTorrent needs trackers, IP needs DNS, etc. As far as I know nobody has quite cracked that nut. OpenID came close?

Signal (@signalapp) is getting flack for being too private. Bad actors can abuse groups and the potential anonymous payment system. Easily solved: add limits. Why would you want a group bigger than 10 or more than 100$|€|£? Not perfect, but It culls most of the problem.

@signalapp would you help someone who then gets prosecuted for using signal by Iranian regime ...

@signalapp Hello, signals customer service. Sent verification message doesn't work, we have to wait for 10 min for the second call, the first call doesn't work too.

@mikealphasierr1 @signalapp It is also worth noting that opening a data centre and an office in every country an online service works in just to comply with useless "I don't want our data to leave our country!" arguments is expensive, useless, and no one (not even FB or Google) does this

@signalapp : fix the notifications on Android. App is next to useless without notifications.

@signalapp Again, love you guys. Give money. The whole thing. When you achieve WhatsApp levels of reliability, then you can dunk. This premise only holds if the service is available to the most informed data protection folks. Ahem.

@signalapp Please never stop in your efforts to make this Internet a better place! I'll think of ways I could help. Probably this will require a way to handle misuse, but not literally. Think like we handle misuse of a knife. Not banning it's sales. It also helps to feed & defend families!

@artium_x @signalapp Most of us in the US are ashamed that our government did those things. There are better ways to oppose injustice, but if making it unclear where to put the bombs means that the bombs don't get dropped then its worth doing. Signal is only trying to help.

@pledgeforeurope @signalapp I ended up uninstalling it and starting again. Lost some unopened messages but seems now to work. Fingers crossed it is now operational. I don't recall ever being asked for a passphrase hence the problems.

@jilliancyork @bencgvideos @signalapp Nor will ignorance over a certain group of people fix anything, in a state where Iran is, it is expected for terror to come out from some citizens. the same can be said for most countries in the middle east, this is the reason why you can't compare Iranian citizens to Americans.
