>The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure required Google to suspend its auto-delete practices in mid-2019, when the company reasonably anticipated this litigation.

This is exactly what I said and disproved what you said.

The US Gov is saying that Google should have expected it, but they never notified Google until much later.

There is no such thing as "reasonably anticipated this litigation" because nobody told them. This entire article is just taking the US gov at 100% fact when Google's side of the story is actually the more reasonable one. Every company on earth has auto deletion policies, although 24 hours is a bit short, it's not intentional destruction of evidence when they were never officially notified.

This is the government trying to shift blame to Google because they didn't want to tell them they were being investigated. This will get thrown out.

>almost all states have the ability to seize private property.

What do you mean 'almost all'? All private property everywhere is enforced by a state.

The UK Gov can just ask the US Gov for any data, as they already have access to Signal. Or the UK could threaten to ban them like the US does to other non-US companies.

> This was proven with WhatsApp not too long ago and Signal also has the ability to attach users.

That maybe true for Whatsapp but Signal has worked hard to tackle that.

Adding users to groups is not possible unless they are already in your contacts in the first place, as Signal pull contacts from your local contacts. But they never share the number, and only if other people have that same number already in their contacts will it be show to both parties.

edit:

> Default settings in Telegram aren’t encrypted, same with Signal

That is plain wrong. Telegram does not encrypt by default and not at all in channels. Signal ALWAYS encrypts for one to one and for group chats.

I am not going to go through picking apart all you said, suffice to say not all of it is accurate.

Haven't used this service in years, but it seemed to be useful especially for those who have to manage multiple social media channels. For our company with a single social media channel, it was convenient but hardly necessary.

I support the bill but idk why it seems they’re targeting google. They are like the least shadiest tech company. Go after Facebook and Twitter where most of our pocket of delusionals get brainwashed from

The Atlantic is far left? Seems more like long-form liberalism with progressive cultural values.

So, this might be splitting hairs, but nowhere in that quote does it say that the govt told Google that they had to turn off auto-delete, only that Google should have known (like the other guy said)

My laptop doesnt even have enough ram to run windows 11, yet I still get offers. My old laptop has barely enough for windows 10, and it gets the offers.

I never suggested they were, just stated that only encryption in transit isn't e2ee. If it was, this wouldn't even be an issue in the first place. I understand the proposal just fine.

That's how "good" encryption works. FTFY. Somebody is telling them that symetrical encryption is "good enough."

A non-American using Y'all is funny. But I agree. Americans think they're the main character even in the World News forums lol.

Congratulations. You just failed the tragedy of the commons. This is why individuals shouldn't be allowed to make decisions that impact entire societies.

not really, it is more like having a camera watching your front door and checking who is entering.

There's going to be a niche for software devs who can fix problems that AI creates for very large companies.

Canada has been harboring terrorists from all over the world

I disabled the tpm in bios on purpose because i dont see any benifit to upgrade to w11.

I especially find it funny that they have mixed up Royal Mail and Royal Mail international.

F*ck MS and their crappy business model. I’m not updating our gaming rigs for Win11 or any of their shit.

Ubuntu here we come

Kind of, but they also, to some extent, “work in mysterious ways”, which has becomes evident with very long content (long conversations), for instance.

Even that is a bit misleading since it implies intent by Google.

Then you probably have TPM but it's turned off in BIOS, and the new checker figured it out

Good. Hope these punks get thrown over the side of a boat.
