Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

If you're a journalist demonizing encrypted communication, I can't take you seriously.
Get used to it, that's the next rhetoric. If the government can't read it and filter it, they're going to try to stamp it out over the next few years.
Actually the FBI has been recommending people use more secure communications lately due to Chinese spying through SMS network infrastructure.
That was knee-jerk because we can't do shit about the espionage. As we go down the slippery slope of authoritarianism, their ability to see everything we say will become paramount to them.
Were at the bottom of that slope already and halfway up the fascist dictatorship slope.
Although they recommend WhatsApp, which is owned and controlled by Meta. I'd be surprised if they don't have access to that.
That part's not new, that started in 2001. But journalists specifically have a vested interest in having secure and private communication. It's not in their interest to equate it with terrorism.
Implying most "journalists" at msm outlets actually do any investigative journalism instead of just reiterate what they're told from law enforcement agencies. See the Luigi manifesto for a recent example lol
How journalists don't just slide into PGP, I'll never know.
Idk how all companies don't post public keys for anyone representing them to their website. We're seeing so many scams these days, from fake recruiters with bogus job offers, to fake lawyers filing bogus takedowns. The ability to prove you are affiliated with who you say you are is a solved problem, none of these scams should be possible, people just don't realize it.
There's a whole working system that exists. All it would have taken is for Google and Microsoft to use it.
Both companies use it to sign software they distribute. They just don't use it to sign correspondence they distribute.
it's ok! telegram is not encrypted!
