We have a bunch scattered around my neighbourhood here in Italy.

That, and if WhatsApp has the keys, then no amount of encryption is going to help.

If I remember, the allegation was that they did keep all the keys and many employees could request them to decrypt specific sessions.

It’s an easy question to answer but a more difficult question to remember to ask. But I guess that’s what those 2 to 3 levels are for 😏

People somehow think that they should give more permissions to Claude than to Camden. (Is that a name? To me that’s a borough and an eponymous beer.)

E: oh yeah, and the market.

You have to be careful with life expectancy. The LE of someone who is already 80 is much higher than that of a newborn. There are actuary tables if you want to look for them.

I’m 50 years old; I’ve already lived through the ’90s. It’s not easy, but I know how to handle it. But if sanctions were to hit young people today, who are 25 and have their entire lives online, I think the sanctions I’m experiencing would be a true civil death for them.”

Honestly, I kind of miss the 90s and doing more IRL. But not everything. And not everything can be anymore.

Having (shock!) read the article, the push is to move civil servants off of WhatsApp and Signal and any other consumer app you may be thinking about and onto a closed-off chat system for each government.

Probably a better anology would be a custom Slack-like service that these governments fully control.
