That is a lot of text. But the bit that jumped out at me was:

But if you need a tool to communicate privately with your friends and family–even if your chats are boring, mundane, and totally legal–Signal is the best damn choice I can recommend.

And I trust them, because they bedazzled their essay with lots of furry art. Like an excessive amount. So they either know what they're talking about or it's a mid-effort psyop.

It's sad that is something to even make note of these days. Source trusts that is.

Hey @Soatok@pawb.social ! Just want to say that I really appreciate your blog, and that it has inspired some really illuminating discussion lately in my security-focused group chats.

I only read parts 1 and 7 because I'm not a cybersecurity expert but that was interesting, thanks!
