Genuinely naive question.

If #TikTok can be pulled from the App Stores and make it hard/impossible for new users to install, could that happen for secure messaging apps (#signal, #session, #simplex, #matrix / #element, #deltachat, etc.)?

I know that the TikTok thing was years in the making, but there is some crazy shit happening pretty quickly lately.

yeah, #deltachat cares for #encryption #circumvention #proxy #pfs #securityaudits #pgp #zerotrust #securemessaging and the like ... but did you know next #iOS version will have ADAPTIVE ICONS!!!11!!ONE1!

I don’t have confirmation on this, and it was I think being mentioned in the context of more secure messaging apps like Signal (and one would guess others offering end-to-end encryption like WhatsApp too) still allowing access to unencrypted (not secure) data by parts of the phone.

Can someone confirm if this is accurate?

5 reasons you should be using Signal

- It’s the Easiest Way to Text Securely
- You Don’t Miss Out on Any Features
- Sharing Files Is Much Better
- SMS Between Android and iPhone Is Still a Hassle
- The Alternatives Aren't As Robust

The author makes a few good points, others are debatable, especially with both google & Apple onboard the RCS Wagon now. Still, I believe Signal a much better alternative.

I did a talk at #hackmas on "Secure Messaging (and attacks against it)" and the great organization team has already put the video recording online at
https://media.ccc.de/v/26cd6d27-247f-5cf3-8adb-54c87bc372b2. Many thanks to the audience for so many insightful questions and discussions - it is rare that the audience is so engaged and aware of nuance! Slides are available at https://www.mayrhofer.eu.org/talk/secure-messaging-and-attacks-against-it/

Abstract: Secure messaging apps are one of the most-used app categories on current mobile devices, and a significant subset of human communication is handled through them. This makes them an interesting target for forensics, surveillance, and general information collection for intelligence services and police institutions. In this talk, we will discuss various options for such surveillance and their respective difficulties, pointing out which options do not seem realistic given all the practical considerations.

TL;DR: There is no good option for surveiling E2EE messenger apps; all of them are broken or practically unrealistic in various ways. I don't see an option to do that without real, significant problems that make all of us less safe. Please stop claiming that it is possible without these nasty issues.

Oh Telegram… why are we even talking about it? https://techcrunch.com/2024/06/24/experts-say-telegrams-30-engineers-team-is-a-security-red-flag/ #infosec #telegram #securemessaging

@m0xee @bascule As a side note, while Signal still couples your account with your phone number (they are giving a few reasons for keeping it that way), exposing your phone number is now completely optional. Now, by default, other parties won’t see your phone number and won’t be able to find you by your phone number (but you can still switch it on as an option).

Kleines Projekt für den Sonntag Abend: Schreibe Deinen 10 oder 20 wichtigsten WhatsApp-Kontakten, dass Du ab jetzt gern bevorzugt Signal nutzen würdest. Meine Erfahrung ist: Natürlich gibt es vereinzelt Unverständnis, aber man findet auch immer jemanden, der schon längst gerne wechseln wollte und sich nicht zu fragen traute.

Traut Euch!

P.S. Denkt dran, Euren Signal-Nutzernamen mitzuteilen.

In case you missed our talk about Messaging Layer Security (MLS) at #37C3, you can re-watch it now.
https://media.ccc.de/v/37c3-12064-rfc_9420_or_how_to_scale_end-to-end_encryption_with_messaging_layer_security

MLS is the first standardized and fully specified end-to-end encryption protocol. It brings substantial improvements in performance and security compared to existing protocols. We have been involved in the design and development of the MLS protocol since the very beginning.

We ended 2023 with a talk at #37C3. @raphaelrobert and Konrad presented the new standard for end-to-end encryption, Messaging Layer Security (MLS). The room was packed and some people couldn't attend in person – luckily the talk is now online and can be watched again.

Check out our blog post where we examine the push notification problem and address potential misconceptions!

In the wake of recent reports by @Reuters, @TechCrunch, @404mediaco, and others on #surveillance via push notifications, many people have been confused about reports about it and how it affects their own #privacy when using messengers anonymously.

We have been involved with the original investigation by @netzpolitik_feed.
