Stop using telegram, people. It is unencrypted garbage. You should have uninstalled it when Durov was arrested.

All of your chats will be handed over in the clear to the authorities when requested. All those 1:1, group chats, etc. Yes, i know it has encrypted mode 1:1 from a phone. Nobody uses it.

I wonder why all people say "stop using that and that" but they never say stop using a government... that is the REAL cause of all this mess.

If you really want privacy, stop using internet. Your device is already compromised before you are using ANY so called "encrypted" app.

RIP JM. He had some interesting ideas. His take on attacks against encryption, while ultimately possible (eg: attacker can see pre-encryption text via a client side attack), has some large cost. Very few are worth wasting 0day.

Encryption works. To argue it is a waste of time is security nihilism. It absolutely is not a waste of time. I am suggesting that folks drop the snake oil encryption, and go for something strong.

One can try to stop using a government, but governments will never stop using you.

It's simple: stop feeding the beast (gov/banks). Use only bitcoin as day to day money. In the end they will die or be obsolete.

I support your vision of the future Darth.

What do you make of governments stashing Bitcoin, as a last ditch effort to save the State? Will National Strategic Reserves change this calculus?

It is critical we get as many sats into the hands of the people before States lock up the supply for 100 years.

I'm doing my part!
