Signal and encrypted email only.
Brain damaged people trust x again.
I don't trust anything coming out of Elon's fascisthole. Deleted the app when he bought it and never looked back.
Why are people evening using this site anymore? It’s been severely compromised.
Cause it has an audience unlike mastodon or bluesky. All the other alternatives are dead.
Your hero just joined bluesky so not that dead
What some call "normies" besides most celebrities.
LOL nope. I'd use anything else.
It was eyerolling back when that dickhead decided to sell blue checkmarks instead of issuing them only to verified celebrities.
YET?
It’s like a regular encrypted chat but with peepholes and racism.
How about: "You probably should trust or use X at all... ever."
offering me end-to-end encrypted chat
No one - not even X - can access or read your messages
This key is then stored on X’s servers
So...they're just blatantly lying?
It's encrypted with a 4 digit pin so they'll have to spend at least 316.8809e-10 years on brute-forcing it.
That's why my PIN is 5 digits: 12345
One. Two. Three. Four. Five?
That's amazing. I've got the same combination on my luggage.
Suck. Suck. Suck. Suck!
The Muskrat lying? No, never!
TL;dr of the article :
- They keep your private key on their servers.
- Their implementation allows for AITM attacks.
- It's closed source.
- There's no perfect forward secrecy.
This secret stays between you, me, and Elon.
I hope politicians use the hell out of it, so we can see what they really think when it gets (inevitably) hacked in a few weeks.
If you chat on Xitter you‘re chatting with mecha Hitler.
They keep your private key on their servers.
Then it's literally not even E2EE, lol
What is the "A" in "AITM"?
This is the first time I heard of AITM, thought it was a new name for MITM:
Anal
It’s just MITM but with extra steps
Ah yes, Malcolm in the Middle is behind this all along.
Adversary
Aliens
Anyone
Elon.
Apple

I wouldnt trust X with a picture of my shoes
...yet? How bout just not trusting it at all?
Hah, beat me by 17 seconds!
That "yet" is the narrative hook to trick us into feeling like it will soon be trustworthy, and that our assumed suspicions refer to a temporary state of untrustworthiness. Clever girls!

Yet? What kind of idiot would imagine that X would or could provide actual secure communication?
Our good friend Elon cannot be trusted? I don't believe you, this must be propaganda to discredit his good manners.
Quick everyone, install this just so that if Pete Hegseth invites people to the next airstrikes chat group, your satirical JD Vance account will be next to the real JD Vance's account and he'll probably add you both and figure it out later.
Or ever.
Or ever
Don't trust it at all.
Cool, and I bet it will be just as trustworthy as WhatsApp (i.e. not at all).
I do really like E2EE but why do I need it in everything?
If I want to talk to someone I would rather them message me on Signal or something that I trust more.
Yeah, way too many services have chats. I think it's because every large platform wants to be an "everything app". Messaging is a really easy to feature to implement to (theoretically) add value.
