They need us to use signal to help obfuscate their comms, its a win-win for private comms, the only issue is potential backdoors...... but it's still better than regular sms, anyone can pick those up with basic antennae.
This is a record from a United States court of law which clearly states Mr. Marlinspike's name as "MOXIE MARLINSPIKE aka MATTHEW ROSENFELD and/or MIKE BENHAM".
So it seems that Moxie Marlinspike is his actual name. Which, he looks fucked up enough to be some weirdo's kid.
Rosenfield. This is a very old German surname, indeed one of the very first on record. It is what is known as "ornamental" in that whilst it translates literally as one who resided by an area (feld) of roses (rose), this may not have been so in fact.
That figures.
And it asks for a phone number up front.
Because like most mobile chat apps your phone number is your account. It's also an SMS app.
Thanks, agent. That's a very persuasive argument.
Yeah I get a bonus every time one of you signs up on signal within a confidential timeframe after reading my post.
Telegram also asks for a phone number up front and it has lots of fashy groups there unlike riot/element which only asks for username/email.
