    @rysiek This is downplaying it way too much for my taste. Let me explain:

    The rough location information is usually only available to servers. Now, even though I prefer zero trust, I would argue that trusting a messenger's server to not give away my rough location is way more reasonable than trusting the person that uploaded the data I'm downloading from the server.

    **But in this case, the person that uploaded the data can extract the location I'm downloading it from.** This is big. It takes metadata to a whole different level.

    I also want to quickly respond to the arguments:

    That very rough radius could actually a pretty big deal in less populated areas.

    The second argument is whataboutism. (And there are definitely apps that are not affected.)

    Kinda agree with the third one though.

    If I were #Signal, I would turn off the caching mechanism for now and urge #Cloudflare to rethink their statement. The privacy protection mechanisms are clearly lacking. Cloudflares position is simply not acceptable.
