DAY032: SECURE MESSSGING

hey, welcome & come along with me for an long blog abt secure messaging services, & this blog is gonna be as long as effective as informative as knowledgeable as blah (blah: blah blah blah), but its gonna be fun to read i promise since i convinced or say explained why u or we should leave meta & google or any other big techs that invading our privacy with our permission that we never given conciously, so todays blog gonna cover one aspect of how to quite the monopoly an dictatorship of those companies, & todays blog gonna be long than my other previous daily blog of my blog series #the121, u can read previous blogs if u wanna, so lets begin

& todays blog gonna be the first blog where i gonna give a bit of more efforts than my other previous daily blogs, cs this topic is not a joke or myth or anything, its very important but not as important as ur privacy, yeah my blog is very important to protect ur privacy but its still not important as ur privacy, does that means my blog is not very important, no, at least in my opinion its not, so what i wanna say by this is that something is more important than my blog or anything else being existed in this world, & that thing is ur privacy, but before begining on main topic let me inform u that im not spaming or scaming or got sponsered by any company that im gonna mention today, cs im just an normal blogger who just started bloging not so much ago but like a month, not more than two month

but u know what is more important than that, yeah u guess it right, ur privacy, lets begin some msin inquries, but first let me tell u that im writing this whole blog without using ai & most importantly any autocorrect keyboards, & im not even an native english writter which maybe u guessed before knowing, let me know if ur known or not, but the point i wanna point out is that my writting can be incorrect sometimes & some words will also be misspelled, so dont argue or comment on that, & one more thing that i have mention before begining & that is that most important part, & that is ur privacy, ha, sorry for spaming a lot, lets begin main topic without any without

why ur privacy so important, if u think abt this question a little bit u will figure out that its not even a question at all, its an common sense to have, everyone has something to hide, even those who says they have nothing to hide, cs do they wake up on house which is made of transparent glass, or do they do they poops on the street or in front of public or do they walks arround the city naked, saying of nothing to hide will they let their enemy know their plans before attacking or let their freinds know what they talking in back of them, if thats so why they even talking in back go infront & talk, in my whole life i have never seen such a joke that human being have nothing to hide, even animals needs privacy so what are those humans actually, some kind of object or something, u see this point is totally useless, so avoid ppls next time who says s#it like this, cs if they dont care abt their privacy how can they care abt urs, & i dont know how many times i have to say this, but i promise after this im gonna give one more detailed blog about this, & then after i wont write long essays everytime just to explain what is privacy is, like cmon why i even need to explain this 3+ years old topic at all

so the thing is clear, we need privacy & i already described how big techs stoling it with our permissions that we given without even knowing, maybe i have to write another simplified & detailed blog abt this, but thats for another day, today lets focus on todays topic, we all chat a lot daily, just stay connected & updated with our freinds & family & ppls we care, & we have been doing it from the bigining of the world or say human civilizations, we need to do it express our feelings to others understand others feelings as well, thats why we created language & many different ways just to communicate with ppls of our surroundings, lets fast forward to todays generation where this process of communication has changed or say modified a lot, nowdays we can connect with ppls all over the world very easily & simply, the method we all choose have now become very greedy for money, any major services all over the world has choosen to stay connected, those services now working on pulling data from users or us in such way which seems to be illegal but is illegal but companies made it look like legal, cs the permission for this is given by us, how?, well we accepted their terms & condition before creating account remember, that 10+ page long document that we never readed but agreed to, thats way we given acess to our personal data which we never known, and what this respected companies doing with it, they selling it to other companies like its their own property or something, than providing us ads based on our preference that we never asked for, & boom more money, and some companies provided solution for this, what is it, buy their subscription & boom, more money, all this services focused their goal to profit rather than offering a better service

but dont worry, we can escape this ridicolus policies by switching to services which are more private & focused on users privacy more than ever, but before continuing here is a qucik list of popular privacy invador services, it includes whatsapp, messenger (meta service), telegram, instagram messages and many more popular ones, there are also some exclusive ones for china & russia which im fully not known off but ppls from their knows those, so how to choose one that is reliable yet still respects our privacy, well its not a hard task to do if u choose from some already populsr services but if u wanna check security of some very small & not very much popular at all service, u need to self check them which requires developer level of knowledge which still not suitable & not recomended at all for general public, so suggestion will be to choose from some already well known privacy focused messaging service which reliable & fullfill ur needs

so what should u look for when finding this type of services that are privacy focused & reliable, lets dive deep into that in this para, & the way im gonna explain to all of u by choosing one service that is recommended by me many other privacy focused corps and to be clear im not sponsered or connected to this service at all, i just love it for its relibility & privacy & currently its my main messaging app that im focused to make everyone switch, its signal found on signal.org for now, if ur someone from very later after this post, check they might changed their website address by the time u read, so make sure to double check before investing time, & the best way to do that is by searching on the web using traditional search engines or any ai with web access funtionality, just search for signal secure messaging app, & u will find all the info, lets come to present, why u should choose signal or apps & service similar to this cs its reliable, fast & secure enough for being an base model to explain secure messaging services, first thing first its e2ee (end to end encrytion) supported, what that means is that u message got encrypted before going to the servers used by signal, or signal protocol, than by the moment it recieved on the reciptions device, then it got decrypted, i'll explain e2ee later on a dedicated blog and link it over here or u can read abt it now on web, but for the basics, it means ur sended text or media or files got converted in such a way that is not readable by humans or even computers will take ages to just decrypt one bit of info without right keys that is only belongs to u, and make sure to check if the service is actually e2ee or not, cs companies can lie, but not in case of signal cs its open source, now what does that means is that entire code of processes, like how their apps tended to do work, how their servers carring data from one user to another, everything is openly avalible on github for users with special knowledge to verify and trust on it, and many devoloper across the globe has verified & recomended signal for daily messaging app

while this was very important, another important part for daily use purpose is reliability, if some apps & services lack on this site there is no meaning to switch to them, and in this case signal also beats off, cs its have been working on it for years & now signal have one of best reliable yet private messaging app for all type of day to day conversations, but its the best app for this yet we still have many other options that can also beats signal in the way of privacy by getting some step furthor on privacy, which does makes sense but as of now none of those as reliable or funtional as this, the only funtional compitator is whatsapp which is also e2ee, but can we trust them, no, there close sourced or simply not open source & maintained by data hungry corp meta, and think abt this, if an company saying their e2ee but not publishing their code publicaly, what does that even mean, can u trust them still, i dont think so u have common sense, so lets not focus on them, focus on some other alternatives that claims to be more secure & private, which is true by defination but not that much groundbreaking at all, or even important all, if u love reliability & simplicity yet with peak privacy focus, u can still go with signal, and not to mention but since signal also have a large userbase in this category, going eith signal is actually better, but it doesnt matter at all since were switching from the largest userbase services like whatsapp, but apart from userbase signal is also better for reliability & functionality which should be also an focus before switch

so some others apps do provide better privacy by defination still not close to signal, cs they just getting over, but not bad at all, one of them is treema, its eu (europian union) based, which u might know is an preety good thing because of eu's hard & strict laws on data protection, but its cool, i never tried but it also have potential i can but personally recommend at all for normal or heavy users, why, cs its an paid service, one time tough, but still who's gonna do it, im not gonna & i dont think anyone i met will give it a try, so thats bad, then we have session chat (getsession.org) which is recommended by me over signal for full privacy focused service, of course its e2ee & open source but one more feauture its adds up is total anonymity, u dont even need any phone number or email to open one, just enter name & start using, its app is also very sleek & reliable but not very funtional as signal till now, auto backup of chats is not supported instead it offers 14 day cloud backup, and if u dont login ur account for 30 days ur all data will be vanished, which is good & bad for different kind of users, for me its good for privacy so good, and its server is fully decenterlized, what that means is that they dont have their own centered servers instead ur data goes from different servers across the globe which makes its impossible for any company access ur even encrypted data, after that we have simplex.chat, its also like session but with more protocols than ever & at the peak of anonimity, privacy, also decenterlized but with more power to that, so u can say the goat of privacy, but reliablity is a sacrifice here, app ui is beautifull but many core feautures missing while packed with every additional feautures needed for privacy & encryption, so u can check out but dont switch immediately, take some time like days or weeks, the problem i came with is notifications not arriving at all, so give it a try, but to be honest, i talked eith their team and get to know that their focus is not mainstream or avarage users at the moment, instead their practicing on privacy enthusists, so thats fair, lets talk about another one before finishing todays blog, and it should mentioned but this thing is big so just basics here, its matrix.org, the only service here that offers e2ee, open source with cloud backups for chat, u do need to open account via email, github & many other option supported, and it currently seems as the future of messeging services, while it have a great focus of spaces which is more likely to discord channels, but also provides better room for personal & group chats with many features, but their client apps are too many [] which a good thing that they supporting everyone this way, and it means a lot since they making their api accesible for others, the main client they suggest is element where element team is currently planing on replacing it with their fastest matix client ever called element x, and another one for basic usage is fluffy chat, while others are for different purposes & needs, but this two are main, u can find all of this services info on their sites which i mentioned with them or search on the web, maybe its time to end so lets do it, haaaaaawwwwnnnnnnn....

so thats it for today, connect me on my socials, its actually been a long blog but full of knowledge while started using some time waste techniques, sry & not sry for that, and its almost 2 hours writing, and maybe u noticed an [] before the ending, well thats because the blog should land yesterday but at time it got passed 12 and now im at today, so yesterdays blog droping today while its started yesterday, no more faps, now lets end it, & connect me if u want

have an better life...
