    But that re-keying attack seems like an easily fixed design flaw. The keys are already separate from the hardware, so a "clean" hardware replacement should include a transfer of key material from the old hardware to the new hardware so that re-keying queued messages is not necessary. Of course, now there's the vulnerability of exposing key material during the transfer, but that could be done requiring physical access, eg. a USB OTG cable, or Bluetooth pairing. No need to store the key material in The Cloud. !crypto

    !GNUsocial was never a platform for private and secure communication. It is a platform for open, transparent communication free from the commercial advertising agencies. !Decentralife

    @mmn I'd be happier with full group federation, but I'll settle for fully-qualified group names. Group federation should exist because it's a mechanism for addressing multiple recipients, similar to the way a !GNUsocial instance is a way to host multiple participants.

    !GNUsocial is another significant group on https://status.vinilox.eu/groups but it's probably best hosted by @mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se

    Hi !Fedgroups: I'm ready to take over some of @Vinilox's groups: !Conversations (and !Android IM client with #OMEMO) is at http://sn.jonkman.ca/group/conversations , I'm thinking !CyanogenMod can be replaced with !LineageOS at http://sn.jonkman.ca/group/lineageos/ and I'll absorb the bandwidth for !Coffee at http://sn.jonkman.ca/group/coffee/ If you're a member of these groups on https://status.vinilox.eu/groups you should leave those groups, then join the ones on http://sn.jonkman.ca/groups

    Using !Tor without #TorBrowser makes you vulnerable to DNS request leaks, and other nasties. I've seen this using #Thunderbird, which is just awful (ie. leaky) for all sorts of things (POP3, SMTP, IMAP, extensions). Not all data for every layer escapes, but there's enough leakage that anonymity is compromised. #TorBirdy is a Thunderbird plugin to reduce that kind of leakage. See https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/torbirdy TorBrowser has added !security hardening to !Firefox to minimize vulnerabilities; if you're going to the trouble of using Tor you may as well use TorBrowser since that's no extra effort.

    I use #MBR to partition my thumb drives with a 4GB NTFS partition, and the rest LUKS encrypted containing an EXT4 filesystem. USB connected rotating rust drives just get the LUKS treatment. !security

    The #Wikipedia #deletionists were the biggest complaint we had during a Q&A session in 2011 with then-Executive Director Sue Gardner. Nothing got changed, a Toronto Wikipedia users chapter was never set up, and shortly afterwards the Wikipedians mailing list was cancelled in favour of (Yahoo or Google) groups. I was never very active on Wikipedia, but after this even less so. https://www.flickr.com/photos/laurelrusswurm/albums/72157650655305999

    There's a lot more to the #Internet than just #Twitter. Since Twitter decides to display only 140 characters of the Internet, you need to go elsewhere for the rest.
