  • My point is that this thing is a dumb robot tha doesn't have a weapon. So its actually a step up from racist mall cops shooting people because they're brown.

  • Yes, you can. The server code is on github. But I don't know why you would, since all messages are encrypted client-side.

    Its more secure because you know that all your users can't send a message unencrypted, either accidentally or intentionally.

  • What data do you think they're getting from you?

  • Its actually more privacy friendly to leave WiFi on and airplane mode on. Cell radio leaks a lot more data than WiFi, if you encrypt everything through a VPN

  • Google phones give a random fake Mac address on WiFi since like 10 years

  • Aaand target loads of people who are from a different culture and innocent in the process. Usually these false-positives fall hardest on people of color, historically

  • I wonder how much property damage it will cause bumping into everyone's car when you throw a bag over its head

  • National Parks?

  • Just put a blind fold on it?

  • I read that in dalek voice

  • It probably just has a WiFi repeater in it

  • Well its probably not a MITM if its just an official access point

  • If I give the robot a wegie and put a piece of dirty underwear in its head, will it shoot me?

  • Sounds like a design flaw. How does this work with other messengers that don't allow users to send unencrypted messages, like Wire, Signal, and WhatsApp?

  • Encryption is, what, a 10% hit? I (and most companies) would gladly take that tax to ensure that it wasn't possible for me or anyone in my org to accidentally send an unencrypted message.

  • Maybe I'd be afraid of the implication, but I'm pretty sure I'd be skeptical if all of my peers and everyone older than me all had 2 thumbs

  • Valid. Shit and fish taste different. Both terrible, but they have a distinct disgust.

    1. That dude running with scissors has remarkable dexterity and aim to be able to quickly target thumbs, specifically. Its impressive.
    2. Did children not wonder why they never met anyone who was missing a thumb? Or was there some sort of bizarre plague in Germany at that time that caused many people to be missing thumbs?
  • Maybe email them and let them know about the misconfiguration

    Let them know that tor users can't read their article about Tor
