[QUOTE]Originally posted by Martinna: [QB] Very good question. Both parties need the ap installed. 100% of normal text messages and phone calls are now recorded by the government. This revolution was not televised :patriot: You had no say in this change, no vote, no public discussion :patriot: The Signal ap from https://whispersystems.org functions similar to facebook chat/WhatsApp, google hangouts or skype. Both ends need to have Signal installed to talk, just like both ends need Skype installed to talk. What's different about Signal is that only the recipient on the other end can decrypt your text message or hear your voice. Big corporations like facebook and google only encrypt your conversation between you and their servers. Then Facebook/Google decrypts your private conversation and keeps a copy for themselves to analyze for information they can sell to their advertisers, and then facebook/google gives the full copy of your conversation to the government to store and analyze! The government's own documents which were never intended for its citizens to ever see brag about this fact, take a look ------ https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f3/PRISM_Collection_Details.jpg :eek: Those perverts at google will also read your private information and stalk children http://gawker.com/5637234/gcreep-google-engineer-stalked-teens-spied-on-chats :eek: Not surprising this stuff happens, google's business model is surveillance. With the Signal ap this can never happen because only the phone on the other end can decrypt your message, versus google, facebook, whatsap, microsoft, skype, apple, and the rest which all access and process all of your messages, then give a copy to the government. So what can you do? You have very few options, and installing the free Signal ap from https://whispersystems.org is one of the best! Take a look at the chart below of secure messaging platforms. Almost all of them provide zero security or privacy! https://www.eff.org/secure-messaging-scorecard Out of the few aps you can trust that have 100% green marks. Cryptocat was shut down. The Government tried to do a sting operation on its creator. Chatsecure+Orbot still exists last time I checked, haven't checked up. Silent Text and Silent Phone are great, but you have to pay for them. Telegram was proven to be a fraud, they were exposed for keeping a copy of your chats on their servers in clear text, zero trust. Text Secure was merged with Redphone into the Signal ap. The OTR plugin from https://otr.cypherpunks.ca/ when used with https://pidgin.im works for PC chats. The MAC version Adium has authors that are a bit sketchy, so it can't be fully trusted, but at least google can't fully spy on you with Adium if you use the OTR plugin on a MAC. TL;DR; The Signal ap https://whispersystems.org with a long pass phrase {a couple of random words} is the most viable ap we have these days for protection against crooked government, corporation and law enforcement employees. Next best is a paid ap Silent Phone and Silent text from the company Silent Circle. There is also Pidgin with the OTR plugin for PCs, with logging disabled in the preferences on both sides. That's it. Pretty much safe to say all other chat apps are bullshit and collude with the government and other companies behind your back, while lying about it to your face. Just the facts. :patriot: Real talk; Google, Facebook/Whatsapp, Skype, Apple, Microsoft can't be trusted with anything. They betray and lie to their users every day. :bsflag: [/QB][/QUOTE]
