@altair222 @fosserytech for activist and journalistic case (hoping you have Android instead of iOS) would be Signal, or Molly which is hardened Signal Fork, Session, or Briar.
Not too sure about PC.
Session has alt-right affiliations so i stay away from it. Can suggest SimpleX due to its infrastructure system but it is still a very young project
@altair222 @AnonymousEntity Hi, Could you elaborate on "Session has alt-right affiliations"? I use it with my friends and would like to know more about this.
I'm unable to find the evidence i once held on the matter. I'm going to continue trying to find it.
@altair222 My main app to use is Molly.
If I had an Edward Snowden threat model, then I would use Session regardless of politics. It's the best way to ensure that they don't know who's talking to who and the contents of the messages.
I despise how people make platforms and tools politicized. They were never meant to be. I use different apps with supposed affiliations but as long as I don't engage with those people, that's one more normal person on the platform keeping the balance.
The direction a communication service takes entirely depends on the political affiliations of their developers. Everything is political in nature, politics is merely the study of social systemic structures that humans develop.
@AnonymousEntity @altair222 so say you are a lefty, green or democrat, people should just boycott your work or stop employing you, due to that? I don't condone anything here, but that is absolutely absurd! 🤦🤡
@chiefbongo @altair222 for me, privacy and anonymity is what it is. I'll use whatever's available to obtain it. Using those services won't benefit them since it's free and open source.
@AnonymousEntity @altair222 don't get me wrong - I am a-political. This cancel culture is just becoming a thoughtless norm and people should start speaking up about it. Every human being has a right to put food on the table, no matter what. Who cares if someone is interested in wild sex parties or political affiliations, a certain religion or whatever other fancy. Nobody has a right to judge or condemn, as long as it does not affect someones professionalism at work.
a-political person who has political opinions.
@AnonymousEntity @altair222 I would recommend custom roms instead of regular Android for real privacy. Android's new "Privacy" Sandbox is a scam.
And using Signal with VOIP if they must
