It seems like I constantly see “X secure messaging option is actually bullshit because it was purchased by Dr. Evil and Y is actually just e-mailing your messages directly to Xi Jinping.”
Is there an authoritatively “best” one I can just…download and setup easily? Is Signal good? Or do I need to solder a Raspberry Pi to the flux modulator of my home Linux NAS GUI, etc…?
I wouldn’t be surprised to find out its true.
The problem is it shouldn’t be a blight because its impossible to prevent bad actors from using an actually private and secure messaging app.
So the act of reporting on it is a smear because most don’t understand or acknowledge the impossibility of preventing those bad actors.
