  • The most secure way to message someone privately is with a platform offering end-to-end encryption (E2EE). I explain how messaging apps like WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram can help you ensure that no third party is snooping on your messages.

    Do you have any suggested encrypted cloud storage servers?

    Face to face conversations are about as private as it gets. Phone calls are susceptible to eaves droppers and texts can be hacked. Keep your secrets to yourself.

    As of August 2022 FB has already set up Messenger for end to end encryption as a default. Look through your settings just in case but it should already be there.

    How do I go back to my to my chats on whatsapp if they are encrypted and I did not enable any encryptions

  • @KurtvonFinck

    When providers hold the encryption keys the messages are not truly secure. As mentioned, an entity (usually governments) can request the messages be decrypted with the provider's key.
    Signal is the only app mentioned here where the encryption keys are only held by sender and receiver.

    • @KurtvonFinck

      @Chatsta If the keys can be extracted by a keyless recipient, they could be extracted by anyone.

      That's why you use end to end encryption

  • @camadams9149

    It's wild that in the year of our lord 2023, end to end encryption isn't a standard baked in feature on all communication platforms.
    My messages are incredibly boring and I still want to make sure they never leak. Why? Because if you aggregated all the messages I ever sent, you would know all my financial stuff, medical stuff, job/hobbies/address, internet accounts, etc
    That is basically begging for problems to arise in the future. You know who doesnt have time to deal with something like identity fraud? Me.

    If you don't turn on encryption can phishing happen?

      Just delete the whole conversation that is encrypted after that just search your friend's name and start a new coversation.

      Too many deleted posts of mine on this video. Plus this video is garbage. They lightly go over the topic but give you zero facts.
      Do yourself a favour, just do a search for the topic. Avoid using this video as a resource. They skipped so many details it's not funny.

    Brother is this a joke?
    Please do some real research.
    Whats app? Please????
    Apple??? Please????
    Telgram must be set to secret chat and evn then is questionable.
    The only real encrypted app you have mentioned is Signal.
    Help your viewers
