Gregory's Server@IzzyOnDroid "Messaging apps will have to interoperate"
That sounds like:
1. A technical nightmare
2. A privacy nightmare
3. A surveillance state's wet dream

@IzzyOnDroid It's the fucking EU, who are so technically incompetent, even more so than the US or UK government, that they think mathematics can be induced to work differently by the presence of a piece of paper, so not surprised, I guess...  @SiteRelEnby@tech.lgbt @IzzyOnDroid@floss.social it's also rather limiting since depending on how they mandate this they could be like YOU MUST OFFER SMS too. I feel like interoptable apps can exist in a secure way, but forcing it kinda breaks things and I doubt this will apply to anyone who isnt a large player like Google @SiteRelEnby @IzzyOnDroid at worst itβs all three, but thereβs no reason that there canβt be a secure standard β google came up with MLS (yes it sounds like TLS) and i believe at least matrix has said theyβd work on supporting it, and with the EU law i would hope thereβs protection from an MS-style embrace extend extinguish for that standard |
@SiteRelEnby Finally one who understands. Thanks for speaking out! Those are exactly my fears when I read that sentence.
