09:51:24<@OrIdow6>Maybe this means I'm turning into something like an emacs guy, but why exactly do programs need to encrypt stuff? Use the disk
09:52:36<@OrIdow6>Especially the chatgpt thing, reading about it it feels like it comes from the world of people who think that screenshots are unfakeable
09:55:16<@OrIdow6>If Signal promises to encrypt but stores the key in plaintext, that is a problem, but as the last tweeter says, most of this seems to be people shocked that the desktop doesn't work like IOS
09:56:33<@OrIdow6>I've got a copy of my Skype history from 2014 *because* it was stored unencrypted and in an easily-decipherable format
09:57:16<@OrIdow6>That's not true of a lot of the stuff on my old phones

12:32:53<TheTechRobo>I think the problem that is being complained about isn't that you can access chat history unencrypted, it's that if you get the app's state, you can run a second instance of the app that won't show up in the list of sessions. So if someone copied Signal's local state, they could stay logged into your account indefinitely until that expired for
12:32:53<TheTechRobo>whatever reason, and it wouldn't show up anywhere.
12:33:46<TheTechRobo>That should probably be fixed by making tokens IP-specific or something, but then people would complain about having to log in more. I'm not sure there's a scenario where they win.
12:33:51<TheTechRobo>That being said, if that _is_ what they're complaining about, they're doing a horrible job of getting that across.

16:34:44<nukke>I don't have headphones so I can't listen to the video/haven't watched it, but either they might not have been using an email provider that screens for malware, or they were but they were using a client (like outlook) that doesn't show "potential malware" warnings
16:39:56<@JAA>Also apparently something that doesn't show complete filenames? Hiding extensions is awful.
16:41:03<nyany>sigh, lol
16:41:22<nukke>email clients (web or local) show extensions, don't they?
16:42:24<@JAA>Probably, maybe?
16:55:50<thuban>props to torrentfreak for actually linking the dmca notice discussed in the article--better sourcing than many mainstream news organizations

17:17:34<steering>OrIdow6: odds are pretty good they did see some warnings and ignored them because there's warnings on everything
17:19:19<steering>but these days they don't send the attack in an attachment anyway, they send a link that looks like it's to Google Drive or OneDrive or something
17:21:35<steering>without having watched the video my guess would be it was an email with a link to $cloud_document which itself had a link to $phishing_page and person went and dumped in their credentials

22:33:08<fireonlive>speaking of the researchers, i just saw they declared they're no longer having anything to do with signal
