I find myself these days hesitant to even consider any private messengers if they don't have the option to verify which devices/keys have access to your messages. #Signal, #XMPP / OMEMO, #Matrix, hell even Facebook Messenger's E2EE chats let you verify which devices can read your messages. If you're encrypting your users' messages, but they can't verify whether a rogue device has access to their messages, then why even bother encrypting them?

Hi #mastodon
I am a product #security engineer looking to move to #germany #switzerland #austria or somewhere (us citizen) help me find a city!
The following is what I am prioritizing:
1. Economic stability. I’ve been in Silicon Valley for 14 years and... yeah no
2. Peace / calm
3. Time off. Many times I never took a single day off in a calendar year. Many times I was on call on Christmas, New Year’s.
4. Nature
Thoughts, #eu folks?

Given we now know governments are spying on people using encrypted messaging through #notifications (to get data or metadata, based on what the specific service sends), the “turn on notifications” prompt in #Signal not having a “no” option but stating “we’ll remind you again later” and continuing to prompt you at regular intervals is now less of a dark pattern to increase usage and more of a #security issue that should be fixed right away.

1. Comic with title "Government's fight against encryption". First picture: Nerdy-looking man with beard holds baloon. Other man has a needle and says: "I want a small hole in this so I could use it if I would need to." Man with beard replies: "But it's impossible! Or you would destroy everything..." Second picture: Closer view, head, shoulders and arm of bearded man with ballon. Only hands of man with needle are visible, needle is close to ballon. Man with needle says: "I said only small hole. Nobody else would know about this." Bearded man replies: "It doesn't work... THIS WAY!". His last two words are on third picture, with close view of ballon and hand touching its surface with needle. On last, fourth picture there is orange-yellow explosion with big text "BOOM!".

  Symmetric-key algorithm
  
  Symmetric-key algorithms are algorithms for cryptography that use the same cryptographic keys for both the encryption of plaintext and the decryption of ciphertext. The keys may be identical, or there may be a simple transformation to go between the two keys. The keys, in practice, represent a shared secret between two or more parties that can be used to maintain a private information link. The requirement that both parties have access to the secret key is one of the main drawbacks of symmetric-key encryption, in comparison to public-key encryption (also known as asymmetric-key encryption). However, symmetric-key encryption algorithms are usually better for bulk encryption. With exception of the one-time pad they have a smaller key size, which means less storage space and faster transmission. Due to this, asymmetric-key encryption is often used to exchange the secret key for symmetric-key encryption. Types Symmetric-key encryption can use either stream ciphers or block ciphers.Stream ciphers encrypt the digits (typically bytes), or letters (in substitution ciphers) of a message one at a time. An example is ChaCha20. Substitution...
