      And...there goes Signal

      https://signal.org/blog/skype-partnership/

      Glad I never used that.

      I love Signal. It's a great means of communications, similar to your iMessenger between 2 iPhones. I missed it when I went to Android.

      It just seems that every time Microsoft gets their hands on an awesome product, it totally turns to crap.

        LOL, I can't stand iMessenger, so unreliable 🙂 That's one of the reasons that I use Telegram, because iMessenger was so bad. Even when on just a phone, I try to go to just SMS because iMessenger messes up so often.

          Luckily MS doesn't have anything to do with the signal protocol itself.. so they can't really mess it up. Sure they can mess up their implementation of it in their system (and they are likely handling the keys.. so they of course already are)..

                    In other news the FBI Hackers are children who name-call Apple as "Jerks" and "One uppers" when it comes to encrypting their devices. . .

                      I wonder what the FBI will do when open source software opt to use 8192 bit encryption as a default. . .

                        Organized crime has always talked that way about their victims.

                          Not at all the article I was hoping for, and it really just makes me want to laugh at the FBI more.

                              I dont' know about the rest of you, but the lack of a button has really annoyed me with the iPhone X and the Samsung Galaxy S8.

                              Used an iPhone X for the first time on Wednesday evening. I have the lack of some button to start actions.
