Put good out, good comes back.

I’ve never played Diablo. It’s free on the PS5 so I’m going to give it a go.

Maybe I’ll meet the real Elon Musk account 🤣

Every cycle, there are people who buy bitcoin adjacent assets and get rugged.

Then we start posting:

Not your keys 🔑 , not your coins. 🪙

⚡️🚨 FYI - Facebook once bought a VPN app for $120M and turned it into a surveillance tool that spied on 33M+ users' entire phones for years.

This app helped Zuck buy WhatsApp for a whopping $19B and break Snapchat's encryption.

The name of this Israeli app was Onavo.

It promised to “secure your data” and reduce mobile data usage.

When Facebook bought it in 2013, Zuck said the app would help them connect more people to the internet.

Facebook even promised to keep Onavo running as a standalone brand.

But Onavo operated as a VPN that routed all your phone's internet traffic through Facebook's servers before sending it anywhere else.

Facebook could see:

• Every app you opened

• How long you used it

• Which websites you visited

• And at what time you used each app

What did this mean for Facebook?

It meant that Zuck could see exactly which one of Facebook's competitor was growing popular among people.

Look how Facebook was tracking these apps (revealed in the court later)

By 2016, this data revealed Snapchat was exploding in popularity.

But there was one problem: Snapchat's traffic was encrypted, so Facebook couldn't see how people were using it.

In an email, Zuck says:

It seems important to figure out a way to get reliable analytics about them

Facebook's started "Project Ghostbusters" - named after Snapchat's ghost logo.

They would use "man-in-the-middle" attacks to break Snapchat's encryption.

Within a month, Facebook's engineers built "kits" that could intercept Snapchat's data before it got encrypted.

Facebook created custom client & server side code based on Onavo’s VPN proxy app.

This code included a client-side “kit” that installed a root certificate on Snapchat users’ mobile devices.

Then Facebook’s servers created fake digital certificates to impersonate Snapchat analytics servers to redirect & decrypt secure traffic from those apps to Facebook.

Seeing Snapchat's success, Zuckerberg offered to buy it for $3 billion.

But when Snap's CEO refused the offer, Facebook launched Snap's most famous feature on Instagram - Stories.

But this wasn't just about Snapchat.

Facebook used Onavo to systematically monitor Houseparty, YouTube, Amazon, and dozens of other apps.

Any rising competitor was identified, analyzed, and neutralized.

Apple forced Onavo off the App Store for violating privacy rules.

So Facebook rebranded it as "Facebook Research" and started paying teens $20/month to install it on their phones.

When Apple found out, they revoked Facebook's certificates, breaking ALL of Facebook's iOS apps.

Onavo shows how Big Tech weaponizes our trust.

33 million people installed privacy protection that was actually the most sophisticated corporate surveillance tool ever built.

I'm posting all the screenshots as comments.

That’s criminal.

Is the guy who finds locations on a map from images real? Or just like an entertainment show that is based on an agreed upon lie?

Ngl watching the video did make me want to jump 😅

This is the energy I expect from everyone today.

People were fit and there were no obese people in 70s and 80s.

Good night nostr.

When I was young, having gears on his bike was like saying you own 1000 bitcoins. 😂

😂😂

We are doing fine in nostr.

Apple is running ads to teach people where to find the deleted folder in the new Photos.

THATS HOW BAD THE PHOTOS APP IS!

I need the mental stimulus #bitcoin is doing now.

Those long sideways moves are SO boring.

Since I commute by Metro daily, I get the chance to walk by hundreds of people at least twice a day.

I’m sure I’ll find someone with bitchat installed one day.

For now the hunt continues.

جمعة مباركة. 🧡

Respect.

That’s a little on the nose.

Might as well come say I joined because of bitchat 🤣

could bitchat be more successful if it had a different name?

if so, what is it?

#asknostr
