something weird is going on in the official matrix HQ chatroom. it appears someone with admin priviliges is spam calling the entire room (all 45k people). it's either a bug, a rogue admin, or a hacker. my guess is the latter. will update

😵😬

calls appear to be coming from different users though at least one of these users has just posted to the room insisting that it wasn't them...the plot thickens

it appears these random calls (going on for 3 hours+ now) are combined with some sort of DDoS attack as well. admins are on the scene trying to stop the shenanigans

it appears to be another unfortunate exploit of matrix's leaky implementation of e2ee...i guess we'll find out soon enough

sooo thankful for #SimpleX, it's still young but i expect it to be a signal and matrix killer sooner than later
