It used to be most public transit I used until the fucking fools who endlessly blast millisecond Tik Tok videos came along. Every bus now requires a guillotine.

With all the shady VPN providers out there, and considering they have access to all your online traffic, I think it’s a service worth paying for.

I’ve created aliases and then somehow received spam on them years after I’d stopped using them. No idea how these spam losers pass around email addresses, but I’m happy people like you are building tools to thwart their BS.

I’ve been convinced for years that cursive is boomer encryption.

It doesn’t break the encryption, you’re right, though insofar as it makes the encryption irrelevant, I’d say it’s being undermined, but that’s just wordplay. The point is, fuck Open AI.

I agree. It definitely does undermine the purpose of E2EE. I just wanted to let it be known that ChatGPT hasn’t actually broken the encryption algo.

Still, fuck Open AI, and any friend who would ever use AI to scan our Signal chats (if such a plugin is ever created) will be immediately cut off from chat comms.

From the article…

I want to make one technical point absolutely clear because several people have misunderstood my argument:

The encryption still works. OpenAl hasn’t cracked or mathematically broken iMessage encryption. An iMessage remains encrypted between endpoints. The privacy problem occurs at the endpoint.

Once the message has been decrypted on the recipient’s Mac, that recipient can authorise third party software to access the readable conversation. The encryption worked exactly as designed. It simply can’t protect message content from software authorised to access it before or after decryption.

That’s what I mean when I say this integration undermines the purpose of end to end encryption.

You’re very smart and we’re very dumb. Congratulations.
