On Android it scans installed apps for known malicious APK hashes. I think you can also send DNS requests through it via VPN service. Not that useful at all and can be achieved for free via other means (Google Play has Play Protect so it does the same thing), definitely not fighting off Pegasus spyware. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian It's simply not possible with the way Android and iOS apps work (app sandbox). The author of that article is complaining about the fact that Apple/Google don't give security software special access (so they can't sell their scam as easily). The real attack surface comes from highly privleged EDR software like CrowdStrike (and iVerify if they gkt the access they wanted), not mobile phones. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian This is hilarious to read, they're claimimg to have detected Pegasus spyware via a mobile app 🤣 https://iverify.io/blog/why-i-joined-iverify npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Trail of Bits lost credibility since iVerify: https://xcancel.com/GrapheneOS/status/1828651999300124796 npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Switch to the simplex.apk (64 bit) GitHub release and keep it updated via Obtainium: https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Signal is end-to-end encrypted by default, Telegram only has optional secret chats for 1:1 chats.

P2P over an overlay network like Tor or I2P is better, but still not perfect: https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/simplex-vs-cwtch-who-is-right/19256/8 npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Nostr and SimpleX can coexist. One as a publishing, or "social media" network, the other as the most private and secure communication network. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian I completely agree, this is what I meant, I probably shouldn't write stuff when I'm tired. I don't think Nostr private messaging and SimpleX can coexist without users' safety being harmed. The ones who already are aware go out of their way to avoid Nostr DMs, and a lot even put links in their Nostr profiles. This means the only people who are using Nostr DMs are people who don't understand the lack of privacy and security, which is very dangerous. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian If you're talking about the Session messahing app, then not really. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Sadly a lot of the developers see it as competition rather than something that can coexist. I believe it would be beneficial for both platforms too. User safety is being put at risk with the current system. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian https://x.com/SimpleXChat/status/1835393532250530132 npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian The developer has said they think SimpleX is more private, but I think Nostr clients in general need to add some big text with warning symbols and sirens to warn about the insecurity of DMs. Also, this should be added: https://github.com/retrnull/garnet/issues/8 ⚠️🚨 npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian The solution is to stop using phones that violate user rights by preinstalling a bunch of unnecessary proprietary services. https://grapheneos.org npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian SimpleX gets 88 points once you stop punishing them for avoiding those privacy/security issues in the first place. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian This points system is punishing apps for for completely avoiding privacy/security problems. If it's not applicable then it should be counted as green, such as: npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Depends if quantum computers can break the cryptography. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Someone can easily run a SimpleX relay anonymously, it's no different to Nostr in that sense. It's just the 1 company operating the preset servers in the app, but there's planned to be more in the future, and all of those will be hosted by known companies that signed a legally binding contract to run unmodified server code, and not logging IP addresses except for DDoS prevention. The idea is that anonymous relay operators have no incentive not to store the minimal user data they can access (mainly IP address). You'd want Nostr relays to be run by anonymous operators in an environment where government demand for censorship is high, as relay operators can't be compelled to takedown content if nobody knows who they are. Delivery redundancy is planned (https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplex-chat/issues/3563). Censorship on SimpleX isn't possible in the same way as it is on a public social network, as everything is end-to-end encrypted, so there's not a lot of reason to be actively using multiple relays at the same time for delivering messages, unlike Nostr. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian This is what I mean. Cashu has lots of support, but not FediMints. There's a single custodian that can steal your coins. FediMints has multiple custodians, so it seems clearly better, but it has very little support. I might be missing something, but it seems very weird. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian I meant to say mobile wallets, there's some command line tools but I can't be bothered with that npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Ok. It seems better than cashu because there's multiple custodians supposedly, idk how it works but there's far less support than cashu. Only mutiny wallet and fedi support it, mutiny wallet is shutting down.. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian What about FediMints npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian The port is blocked: https://x.com/SimpleXChat/status/1835072004921475219 npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian That's why forward secrecy and break-in recovery is used in secure messaging apps. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian I hope you're being sarcastic but you really shouldn't joke when it comes to privacy and security. Nostr DMs, the way they're currently implemented in most clients, are simply unsafe. NIP-04 and NIP-44 don't provide forward secrecy, break-in recovery, deniability (if either sender or recipient is compromised, or wants to prove a message was sent), or post-quantum cryptography. GiftWraps appear to do a good job at protecting DM metdata from public view, but not the server operators. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian https://www.minibits.cash/ npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Signal onboarding is good, most people didn't understand why I wanted them to switch apps, but it was fine once they finished setting it up. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian #nevent1q…rms0 npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian And Nostr DMs are simply unsafe at the moment. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian SimpleX could use Nostr for discovery, but it requires support from clients first.

Telegram markets itself as a private & secure messaging app yet fails to provide default end-to-end encryption, or any end-to-end encryption in groups. Telegram, and especially Durov have heavily participated in misinformation campaigns targeting actual private messaging apps with always enabled, properly implemented end-to-end encryption such as Signal. Should stop getting any advice from anyone who told you to use Telegram as a private messenger. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian Durov is a fruad and a liar. He enables free speech as well as very dangerous criminals. It's obvious why they went after him as he has a bunch of unencrypted data that he won't hand over. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian I can see you've been on here for a while.

I'm glad we have SimpleX and I wish Nostr could be used as a discovery layer. There were talks about this last year that didn't go anywhere. I made a proposal for a contact info field to link to an external messenger like SimpleX to hopefully replace the DM button in clients with but it was declined. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian It's possible that Satoshi came up with the term cryptocurrency, he branded Bitcoin as cryptocurrency at least. npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian I think Wownero suits him better npub170e93y5q4h7kz82xjw3ym4c3766fq5awkhy9d3d655p33sfdyrhsz5le7t PlasmaGuardian #GrpaheneOS
