That's why the FUD makes me suspicious of the ones posting it, more than anything.

At the same time, though, it's reasonable to be concerned that someone on the Signal board has values antithetical to Signal's primary aim.

I saw that a couple of days ago, and am calling it out specifically. It's FUD based upon nothing, even if it does in fact call into question why this person is associated with Signal.

Oh I see, I'm just suspicious of big centralised platforms especially with servers in the USA.

So am I. Nadim is a cryptographer who audits stuff professionally. If there's a vulnerability, the client side (which is open source) would have to show it, which is why E2E encryption is a must for the tools I use.

I'm all for decentralization in everything, but as one who attempted to get friends to use PGP back in the 90's (I failed), I know what that has to look like. Signal is the best option for now.

A priest using PGP? epic!

I was just a kid back then, but yep!

Are you a Catholic priest?

Yes. For almost 14 years.

In the USA?

Yes. Outside of Chicago.

Interesting, are there young people that go to mass in the US? In Europe there are usually people under 18, then over 70 more or less...a huge gap

Quite a few young people, yes. We're headed in the wrong direction, though.

What do you mean by wrong direction?

Not too many people in their 20's right now. That's where the biggest gap is.
