@solariiknight @arunisaac If it's 0C in Canada and twice as cold in Iceland, what's the temperature? (no answer required, but that's one of the things we used to ask when Canada was switching to the metric system just to mess people up) -

The last line of my log file (listed as the reason the program is crashing) is that it can't open the log for writing. -

#Twitter and #Facebook are about the least "open, transparent" organizations I can think of (well, also Google, LinkedIn, Yahoo, Microsoft, and all other members of the #Free-As-In-Gratis #But-We-Own-Your-Data spectrum). Openness and Transparency are orthogonal to Federation, although the Closed, Proprietary corporations are also the ones least likely to federate. You raise an int… -

Agreed, the #WhatsApp "issue" is not a bug, it's there by design. But a designer vulnerability is still a vulnerability. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/01/google-launches-key-transparency-while-tradeoff-whatsapp-called-backdoor !crypto -

I'm no fan of Moxie's position on keeping Signal in a non- #FAIF silo. Yes, federating a communications medium is hard; and federating a communications medium *securely* may only be possible for sufficiently low values of "secure". -

The security flaw is not in Moxie's Axolotl protocol, but in the #WhatsApp implementation. Signal software doesn't have this flaw, it doesn't automatically re-key messages and just refuse to deliver. I doubt Moxie has control over the WhatsApp implementation. -

But that re-keying attack seems like an easily fixed design flaw. The keys are already separate from the hardware, so a "clean" hardware replacement should include a transfer of key material from the old hardware to the new hardware so that re-keying queued messages is not necessary. Of course, now there's the vulnerability of exposing key material during the transfer, but that co… -
