We build Signal in the open, with publicly available source code for our applications and servers. To keep Signal a free global communication service without spam, we must depart from our totally-open posture and develop one piece of the server in private: a system for detecting and disrupting spam campaigns. Unlike encryption protocols, which are designed to be provably secure even if everyone knows how they work, spam detection is an ongoing chore for which there is no concrete resolution and for which transparency is a major disadvantage.
It is off-topic and smear campaign against me, my work that is all. How is that relevant to topic. It s not.
Here goes for both of you, @CHEFKOCH@lemmy.ml and @PandaCoderPL@lemmy.ml, please do not fight it out here publicly. If you want to pick a fight, go do it in DMs or a realtime chat platform like Matrix or XMPP.
All I see is a petty argument between you two, and getting riled up over what is typical privacy community drama. Do not make yourself another GrapheneOS vs CopperheadOS, it makes both look like fools.
@CHEFKOCH@lemmy.ml publicly accused me of harassing him so I felt it will be good to defend myself also publicly.
Of course that would be a better option but I didn’t want to look like I’m avoiding his baseless accusations. If someone is calling me out publicly, they can be sure I will answer publicly as well.
I was only replying to that user and for me, the argument related to his past activity is over. Hopefully he will understand that and will also stop replying to me about that issue.
I appreciate that your reaction but I hope you will try to understand my point of view as well. Thank you in advance.
First useful comment here. Thanks.
I suggest locking this thread, cleaning it. My Guild is here. People with objective and constructive criticism are welcome.
I already predict that this will happen and requested multiple times to lock this because this is all off-topic and a vendetta against my in person, nothing more. The user simply wanted to smuggle his argument inside wrapped up Signal posts to make me look like a fool.
The moment I see another spark that is about to become a housefire in this thread, I will lock it. I doubt anything will happen now.
Disagreeing with your statements is not smear campaign against you.
Claiming something without been involved, checking the facts and abusing it on a high traffic website is a smear campaign, as per definition.
It makes it so or so not better because it is still off-topic.
The problem is that from what I know those facts are not made up, I’m not abusing this and Lemmy is not really high traffic website. If my goal would be to spread this information about you, then I would definitely use any other website but I’m only using those facts as part of our conversation so that’s completely different situation.
If it’s offtopic then just end this part of our discussion at this point. In future, if you don’t want people to remind you of your past then simply change your username or just don’t do anything bad.
You accuse someone which you never tried to contact before, come with a link which had to be closed b an GitHub staff due to misinformation and call this fact. According to you, earth must be flat because it is also written somewhere on the internet.
I urge you to stop spreading misinformation regarding my person because you want to discredit me to make your stuff look better. You failed here miserably. Please stay on the topic, Lemmy is FOSS community. Signal is not anymore FOSS which was the reason it got attention in the first place.
We have sufficient alternatives, they are mentioned here by fine people of Lemmy. This is why Signal is for FOSS enthusiasts dead, and this statement is not wrong.
No, you didn’t.
The issue is still open and last comment was written two weeks ago so either you live in some different reality or your so-called evidence is made up.
The only member who got warned and then permanently banned in that situation was you. Your GitHub account is still banned since 2018. Now try to convince me and others that this happened because GitHub stuff was wrong and they don’t know their own ToS.
Please quote the part of GitHub those which states that the users have to contact you in any way before exposing you and showing evidence against you.
Can you show me any proof that anyone related to arkenfox is chasing you over multiple platforms and that I’m doing the same?
You were the one spreading misinformation, not facts, so I reminded people about who you are so they can better understand why are you behaving that way and that they shouldn’t worry about you attacking them if they disagree with you.
By writing really long post, spreading misinformations and users who exposed you and claiming that amount of knowledge is measured by number of your repositories.
You should better educate yourself if you think that plagiarizing other’s work is nothing bad.
And that’s what you should do few years ago instead of writing long and meaningless post.
You have no way to know that.
The GitHub issue is still open and even active. The only user who got punished in this situation was you.
No, because it was proven that earth is not flat. You still didn’t prove that you didn’t plagiarize other’s work.
You are the one trying to accuse me of harassment only because I gave you the link to facts about yourself.
It doesn’t matter. If you are using Lemmy, it doesn’t mean you can’t use messenger that was FOSS for most of the times.
You are wrong again. Signal is dead but only for you, just one tiny person that is trying to prove that he did nothing bad.
