sudo apt-get install friends

Awesome package! Still figuring out what it does though 🤔

Yeah and I think it’s a pity. It’s the byproduct of “app culture” everything has to be easy. One button, plug and play…

Unfortunately like many things in life “saving” (time and effort n this case) has a cost

Unfortunately even the best intentioned and best audited project can be compromised. So that is not a guarantee (sure, much better than closed source but that is a given)

You may be forced by a rubber hose attack (or legal one) to insert vulnerabilities in your code… and you have the traffic… a single point to attack… signal/proton/etc

Is it possible with two different vendors? Sure it is but it is way more complicated

Call me old fashioned but I really think that for real E2EE the vendor of the encryption and the vendor of the infrastructure should be two different entities.

For example PGP/GPG on <any mail provider>… great! Proton? Not great

Jabber/XMMP with e2ee encryption great! WhatsApp/Telegram/signal… less so (sure I take signal over the other two every day… but it’s enough to compromise a single entity for accessing the data)

“Such a nice airspace you have here, it would be a shame if something would happen to it” Also doesn’t say they would invade… still it’s a clear threat.

Putting a correlation on “more fighters jets in your airspace” on them buying more planes that cannot really be used to protect from the US (for software limitations) sounds a lot like a threat.

But, sure, you are technically correct

❤️ Glad to hear that and all the best with your work!

Have you considered having him visit a therapist?

He may have unresolved emotions that would benefit him (and people around him) to come out.

Child therapists pretty much “play” with them so it’s something kids don’t get annoyed/bored (or even give them a lot of thoughts)
