Greetings!

A friend of mine wants to be more secure and private in light of recent events in the USA.

They originally told me they were going to use telegram, in which I explained how Telegram is considered compromised, and Signal is far more secure to use.

But they want more detailed explanations then what I provided verbally. Please help me explain things better to them! ✨

I am going to forward this thread to them, so they can see all your responses! And if you can, please cite!

Thank you! ✨

    Telegram is not end to end encrypted. Repeating it’s not. Only private mode or something like that is.

        WhatsApp is E2EE and it does maintain some of the “cloud” functionality, at the expense of the device transfers being a pain and potentially you losing your message history if you don’t have a backup.
