Sadly it seems cure is better than prevension with the world! I dont get why but could be the false idea that a penny saved today is a pound/dollar tomorrow...

This is down to not contacting experts in the field before drafting legislation. Just reading it with a skim, it sounds like a 5 year old drafting how we should handle police interactions with criminals: "They err... police should be like nice to the criminals, unless the criminals are like bad... err something something... we need to be nice to people"

I mean, why not asking the pin and puk of the old card????? otherwise, in case you lost PUK, you need to prove your identity since it is expected to be tied to your name, if not, byebye, your fault for losing the identifiers.... This is just super easy to mitigate without ANY technical aspect. Notify by sms is borderline stupid because if you lost the card or it does not work, how would you get the SMS? LOL

@@MrLuisrodrigues154 🤦 you need to think a little harder

on every sim change there should be a code that should appear and must be written somewhere. Whenever there’s a sim change there should always have that code in, it isn’t that hard

Let's be clear nothing's app was a gimmick

@@he8535 Pretty much

Sunbird as always suspicious, and it never even worked half the time

I didn't know who Sunbird was when it was mentioned, so naturally I tried to look it up to read their "privacy policy". Even though they presented themselves as a U.S. registered company, I couldn't find anything, even on SEC's website. No history, no registration, nada. It raised very damning red flags, together with the fact that as a software engineer, I was already suspicious of how this could possibly work with end-to-end encryption, if it piggy-backed off Apple's servers without an Apple ID, but instead with a custom login. Only a single search later revealed the Twitter stream about the logging issue, and later revealed everything else like a domino effect.

Thanks for pointing out such obvious flaws.

@@nnnik3595 This feels passive-aggressive. 😂

@@ridafkih it isn't though. The world is made safer because people look

That being said, if you are using nothing chat to avoid being bullied over a green bubble, those people deserve to have their privacy violated. The solution is to use Signal for everyone else.

I understand it can feel silly to care about it, but I don't think anyone deserves to have their privacy violated, even if they care about fitting into frivolous societal norms. :P Signal has its drawbacks as well for your average user! @@blisphul8084

Originally it served a real purpose. Now people just use it to be snobs.

I smell a green bubble here 👃

​@@somedudeonyoutubefrfrI'll get on your level: ratio

It's even so ridiculous that most parts of the world don't even care about iMessage. There are over Messenger working with both operating systems.

Ios is going to support RSC next year. This will not remove green bubbles and i dont see any issue with it as long as RCS is there. It just simply lets the user know the guy is coming from a non iphone phone.

Especially when you consider the fact that creating (or attempting to create) irl catgirls would technically break international law.

Frankly, of all the weird stories about crazies, that one makes like... at least sense...

@@FrostBird347 only technically?

@@ryan1696 Quite literally. Tampering with human DNA is illegal altogether. Not to mention that resulting abomination will live short and quite painful life.

​ @ryan1696 you could indirectly do research with that goal in mind by working with other organisms (e.g on monkeys). Of course you would still need to switch over to people at one point or another, however their demand didn't state that they had to actually make them: they just had to "research creating irl catgirls". (I will point out that personally I think it is a horrible idea, but the morality of it isn't really the topic of this discussion)

Loudly even. I bet he was just looking for an excuse to say it!

however, it probably wasn't that hard!

@@floppa9415 We got our hands on a Nothing Phone 2 to get access to the APK, modified some of the smali bytecode to allow us to utilise dynamic code injection with FRIDA to hook into the code in order to disable their device check and SSL pinning so that we could inspect network traffic during a successful connection. After that it was intercepting requests, exploring the permissions for the Firebase instance, and playing out attack scenarios! It's not uncommon for us to discover vulnerabilities during reverse engineering of applications, but you're right in that these ones were less-than-advanced level mistakes resulting in very easy-to-find issues. Our initial findings were also immediately dismissed by Sunbird as they doubled down on their implementation, so we dug a little deeper when we prepared our bigger report / blog post.

It's used in a few other western countries like Australia and Canada. But a text being green ruining your day and being the sole reason you'd end a friendship is a very American thing to do

Telegram supremacy

​@notaplic8158 I still don't believe that's real. Lots of people say hyperbolic things on the internet. While the blue bubble is seen as elite by some teens because Apple has a cult following, I have yet to see proof of friendship ending or real shaming.

@@notaplic8158 Yea, here in Europe more people have Android than IPhones, so everyone uses some common app like Whatsapp, Telegram etc. Never had to think about what kind of phone another person has 😅

It's fucking hilarious seeing people proudly using iMessage looking down at others when they're literally bottom of the barrel clowns themselves. Even Whatsapp is better in every conceivable way including privacy.

The bias carries over from back when you had to pay for SMS.

yeah it's crazy. also it's completely the reverse in eastern europe or at least here in poland and people will ridicule you for buying an iphone lol

It's not just the colour. It's the features! iMessage is an own feature-rich protocol, that allows media share, use of the full Unicode, group chats, confirmation of receipt and stuff like that. It has all the features of a modern messenger. SMS can't provide all these features. Unicode is just available over an optional additional protocol and not used by all phones. Media shares only work over MMS. The length of texts are limited. There is no option for group chats and SMS uses a horrible completely outdated encryption and even this encryption isn't end-to-end. The industry solved this issue with RCS in the meantime but this isn't available in iMessage yet. RCS will only come to iMessage in the future.

yeah this seems obvious, but apparently not if only you and I are here... also probably it went like this... 1. find fun exploit 2. search web for vulnerable people to exploit 3. shocked to find a national lab doing nuclear research vulnerable to simple hack 4. decide to out them publicly so politicians funding them and administration of the NLs can't sweep their garbage IT failures under the rug or downplay the risk and are forced to actually get their sht together and protect nuclear research secrets.. 5. add furry demands for the lulz

I first thought "what the fuck" when I watched Marques' video the second I heard they're essentially transferring your auth credentials over to a shared mac sitting in a server farm. I thought it'd be bad, trusting a remote computer used for a cheap marketing gimmick that other people also have access to, but never did I think it would be this bad, holy shit even I would immediately think to force HTTPS for credential transfer, what were they thinking?

Now I won't consider buying their phone. The guy interviewed looked like he had been smoking something!

I say they should donate to cat rescue organizations.

Agreed. INL seems pretty important and if they had released sensitive documents or anything like that it would be a disaster for national security

Not really. Considering that security in hacked places will be "meh" even in 90`s...

What if you are under 16? Most people as young as 12 have mobile plans here in the U.S.

​@@IAmComicallyCartoonyYKnow here, everyone over 11 is required to have a photo id. Also, mobile plans for minors are registered under a parent's name and ID

The Grammer of that sentence is actually correct. Feline grammar is complex and often requires body cues for clarification.

They will support RCS because the EU is trying to make them anyway. They just decided it wasn't worth waiting for it to happen.

A Purrrfect example of Cause and effect!

Nah, at least they’re not afraid to go against the government when the government does something wrong

Finnaly a normal reaction to uwu gay weirdos

"for being vein" a tube like structure for moving blood around the body? I think you mean vain. I think the real vanity is in the sad americans who judge people on the colour of a bubble.

Vein - a tubule for the transporting of blood in a organic structure such as a brain. You are speaking about bloody things my friend.

@@PWingert1966 many thanks. Vocabulary accuracy and grammar range are at utmost importance when trashing others.

@@grizzZlyBear I can offer you a link to Eats, Shoots and Leaves! A concise guide to clearer writing for better communication! Now excuse me while I contact my phlebotomist to draw blood from my vein for my annual assessment by my physician!🧛

A lot of people say this but this isn't really the reason why green bubbles have such a stigma. One of the biggest reasons is that the MMS protocol is just generally worse for a lot of reasons (mainly Apple's fault) and that just one person being an Android user in a group chat ends up forcing the entire group to have to also use MMS. Coverage can be really spotty and especially around my school where the thick walls and dense trees surrounding the area are enough to render MMS messaging impossible in a lot of spots around the building.

@@homebrew07 I think it's peer pressure and people giving you a bad time if you don't use iPhone. I don't think average people put much thought into phone purchases outside of what's trendy and what everyone else has.

Finally, a sign of intelligence

can someone tell me what that entire thing is about?
