TobiStill now, <a href="https://dz.social/tags/Reddit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Reddit</a> is some kind of place of good responses and less misinformation. I wonder if it's the case because simple people don't know how it works. Maybe UI/UX is not everything. Sometimes software needs a sinking-in to use it, it excludes a range of spam and so.Ya, ya voting out feature and community, sure, but still, I have the feeling that this could work out well. Also in terms of <a href="https://dz.social/tags/Fedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fedi</a> or <a href="https://dz.social/tags/messengers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#messengers</a>. If software is usable by a 5yo, you get 5yo-cognitive-lvl replies.Thoughts?

𝘄𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗲Оказывается у <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Briar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Briar</a> помимо общеизвестного приложения есть ещё и четыре странных: Earth, Mercury, Venus, Mars. Все весят ~3.5 МБ примерно. Все 4 не пробовал, пока хватило одного из них - Earth. Испробовал там кажется всё, кроме установки этого скриншота креста на второй Андроид и тогда повключать снова там всякие вайфай, БТ и GPS... Почему говорю "скриншота"? Да потому, что это приложение и вело себя как скриншот, а ощущал себя в качестве дурака, включающего на девайсе разные службы и тыча в этот скриншот пальцем в надежде, что чудо всё-таки произойдёт. Но чуда на моем <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Android</a> 10 не произошло, немного поржал и удалил эти странные обои.

🅴🆁🆄🅰 🇷🇺<blockquote>Open Letter to Meta: Support True Messaging Interoperability with XMPP The European Digital Markets Act (DMA) is designed to break down walled gardens and enforce messaging interoperability. As a designated gatekeeper, Meta—controlling WhatsApp and Messenger—must comply. However, its current proposal falls short, risking further entrenchment of its dominance rather than fostering genuine competition. ... Meta Has Already Used XMPP—Why Not Now? WhatsApp was built on an XMPP-based server, and Meta has previously supported XMPP in Facebook Messenger. The protocol is already battle-tested at scale. Furthermore, Meta is embracing federation for Threads with ActivityPub, proving that interoperability works when it serves Meta’s strategic interests. If Threads can federate, so can WhatsApp and Messenger. </blockquote> #^<a class="" href="https://xmpp.org/announcements/open-letter-meta-dma/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://xmpp.org/announcements/open-letter-meta-dma/</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=WhatsApp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">WhatsApp</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=XMPP" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">XMPP</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.hubzilla.de/search?tag=messengers" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">messengers</a> @<a href="https://3zi.ru/@Russia" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Russia</a>

KR. Laboratories 🇺🇦ХАКЕРИ ФСБ ВИКОРИСТОВУЮТЬ WHATSAPP ДЛЯ АТАК НА УКРАЇНЦІВДослідники повідомили, що російська державна хакерська група Star Blizzard нещодавно намагалася скомпрометувати облікові записи WhatsApp некомерційних організацій, які допомагають Україні.Починаючи з середини листопада, хакери запустили кампанію з надсилання фішингових повідомлень, які видавали себе за урядовців США, пропонуючи одержувачам запрошення приєднатися до групи WhatsApp для некомерційних організацій, які підтримували Україну під час війни. Хоча дослідники не сказали, де саме розташовані організації, фейкова група WhatsApp називалася «Група американсько-українських неурядових організацій».Як і під час попередніх атак, Star Blizzard спочатку зв’язалася зі своїми цілями електронною поштою, а потім надіслала друге повідомлення зі шкідливим посиланням.Посилання направляло жертв на веб-сторінку, яка пропонувала їм сканувати QR-код, щоб приєднатися до групи. Насправді QR-код мав на меті зв’язати обліковий запис жертви з пристроєм, яким керують зловмисники, дозволяючи їм отримувати доступ і викрадати повідомлення жертви за допомогою законних плагінів браузера.Вважається, що Star Blizzard також відстежена як Callisto Group і пов’язана з Федеральною службою безпеки Росії (ФСБ).<a href="https://therecord.media/russia-star-blizzard-whatsapp-ukraine" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://therecord.media/russia-star-blizzard-whatsapp-ukraine</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/whatsapp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#whatsapp</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/%D0%BA%D1%96%D0%B1%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B1%D0%B5%D0%B7%D0%BF%D0%B5%D0%BA%D0%B0" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#кібербезпека</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/messenger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#messenger</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/messengers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#messengers</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/webappsec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#webappsec</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#infosec</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cybersecurity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/intelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#intelligence</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/nationalsecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nationalsecurity</a>

Here is my principles for messanger: 1 Short, bite-sized chunks. 2 Time and context awarness. 3 Visual structured. 4 Treat the sender's name with care. 5 Always replay if sender is online. 6 First think what, then think why - what sender expect. For example, he can tell you about his plans and expect to get yours back. 7 Respect boundaries. 8 Make the message more warm, we are humans.Please, share yours. I will try to read. 蠡

Andrey DarkCat09Обычные юзеры просто не знают о существовании федеративных и p2p-сетей. Заблокировали вайбер — уходят в телеграм. Его заблокируют — пойдут во вконтакте, прости Господи, даже если он лагает в сто раз больше. Про шифрование тем более никто не думает, "нам нечего скрывать". Хочу написать страничку с простым объяснением про открытые/проприетарные протоколы, про федерацию как сложноблокируемую сеть, ибо мне недавно удалось вкратце объяснить это маме. На английском и русском. Потом коммьюнити поможет с переводом на другие языки. Есть такое уже? Или начинаю продумывать текст и картинки? <a href="https://lor.sh/@ru" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ru</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ml/@rf" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@rf</a> <a href="https://gts.dc09.ru/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#opensource</a> <a href="https://gts.dc09.ru/tags/messengers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#messengers</a> <a href="https://gts.dc09.ru/tags/censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#censorship</a>
