minus-squarecircuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·19 days agoYou are missing my point. I don’t deny the definition of E2EE. What I question is whether or not RCS does in fact meet the standard. You provided a link from Google itself as verification. That is… not useful. Has there been an independent audit on RCS? Why or why not?

minus-squaremosiacmango@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-219 days agoThank you. I had trouble running down a list. I do consider Signal to be a more trustworthy org than Google clearly, but find this quibbling about them “maybe putting a super secret backdoor in the e2ee they use to compete with iMessage” to be pretty clear FUD.
minus-squarecircuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·19 days agoI’m not suggesting that Signal is any better. I’m supporting absolute distrust until such information is available.
