An official FBI document dated January 2021, obtained by the American association “Property of People” through the Freedom of Information Act.

This document summarizes the possibilities for legal access to data from nine instant messaging services: iMessage, Line, Signal, Telegram, Threema, Viber, WeChat, WhatsApp and Wickr. For each software, different judicial methods are explored, such as subpoena, search warrant, active collection of communications metadata (“Pen Register”) or connection data retention law (“18 USC§2703”). Here, in essence, is the information the FBI says it can retrieve:

  • Apple iMessage: basic subscriber data; in the case of an iPhone user, investigators may be able to get their hands on message content if the user uses iCloud to synchronize iMessage messages or to back up data on their phone.

  • Line: account data (image, username, e-mail address, phone number, Line ID, creation date, usage data, etc.); if the user has not activated end-to-end encryption, investigators can retrieve the texts of exchanges over a seven-day period, but not other data (audio, video, images, location).

  • Signal: date and time of account creation and date of last connection.

  • Telegram: IP address and phone number for investigations into confirmed terrorists, otherwise nothing.

  • Threema: cryptographic fingerprint of phone number and e-mail address, push service tokens if used, public key, account creation date, last connection date.

  • Viber: account data and IP address used to create the account; investigators can also access message history (date, time, source, destination).

  • WeChat: basic data such as name, phone number, e-mail and IP address, but only for non-Chinese users.

  • WhatsApp: the targeted person’s basic data, address book and contacts who have the targeted person in their address book; it is possible to collect message metadata in real time (“Pen Register”); message content can be retrieved via iCloud backups.

  • Wickr: Date and time of account creation, types of terminal on which the application is installed, date of last connection, number of messages exchanged, external identifiers associated with the account (e-mail addresses, telephone numbers), avatar image, data linked to adding or deleting.

TL;DR Signal is the messaging system that provides the least information to investigators.

In-reply-to » Still undecided between TiddlyWiki, DokuWiki, Bear, Benotes, Memos, my blog software, standardnotes, apple notes and more. I like them all quite a bit, but standardnotes, the only one that has reall multiplatform is so fucking complicated to host on your own and then they have this stupid offline subscription thing that allows rich text or the block editor that works like notion. I also found codex docs which is really really nice. Unfortunately they lack proper authentication. 1 / 2

I setup Joplin with caddy as the WebDAV server. Works okay. The e2e encryption can get messed up sometimes. Supports markdown and images.

I have not used AI much at all, I have not paid any attention to it. But today I decided to give stablediffusion a test run, I do only have a 1080 card, so it took some tweaking to output 512x256 images, and I must say it works pretty well. I also had to get one of the memory optimized versions. Fun to test.

Went to the barber shop today. Got a nice talk and, surprisingly, my first “contract” to 3D print something. So, I spent the last hour reading about QR codes, versions and patterns and rescue data to embed an image in the centre of the code. Then it took me some time to convert it from a PNG to an SVG to an STL, so I can put it into Tinkercad to design the new plate. I now have a baseplate, a backplate with the QRCode & two smaller plates which I have to glue into placeholders on the backplate.

Gonna code a bit tonight. Clean up the image code, then I will rewrite some of the code that uses libcurl, make a more generic function that I use in the calls, instead of many functions. That will be nice.

@prologic@twtxt.net They have some markdown support that you can use, but I have not looked into that yet, I might check on that for clickable links in label.

In-reply-to » @darch I think having a way to layer on features so those who can support/desire them can. It would be best for the community to be able to layer on (or off) the features.

An option would be to have /twtxt.txt be the base functionality as bukket intended without subject tags, markdown, images and such truncated to 140 chars. a /yarn.txt that has all the extentions as we know and love. and maybe a /.well-known/webfinger + (TBD endpoint) that adds on the crypto enhancements that further extend things.

In-reply-to » I will release the sourcecode for the desktop client tonight. I will put it on github (sorry to anyone who prefer other places), but the reason is that I do not want my own git to be open for public. So I'll put it on github where I have all my other public projects. I have to write the readme, then add some info on the login page (link to source etc), then it's ready to release with the current features. I then hope others will give it a try and use it if they want :) I also have many other features I need to implement, but all the main features that makes it usable has been implemented, so I'm very pleased with it (And I use it all the time now).

@prologic@twtxt.net I will give it a shot today, that and to show attached images in the status would be great to have. I just need to figure out the curl for posting image, then the rest would be easy to implement :) I would use that a lot since I often post photos and such.

@funbreaker@yn.vern.cc Hi! I have attached the current screenshot, as you see it’s not done yet, I need to add some things, but a lot of work is already done.
I will fix the remaining things and try to make it usable enough this week so that I can upload the source.
Need to add the remaining reply button, image loading and width of the text etc first.
I had that in the FLTK client, so I just need to add it to this new GTK gui.

Here is what I had with FLTK
https://yarn.stigatle.no/twt/4nuoc7q

I did not have time to work on those things today, ran out of time. But I’ll resume tomorrow.

In-reply-to » Posting from c++, fltk GUI.

Been going back and forth on the gui, I will move away from FLTK and go for https://www.gtk.org/ instead.
I’ll spend tomorrow working on that. I need a more refreshing GUI then what I have now.
And also FLTK is a pain to get to work as I need - spend the whole afternoon trying to get it to use images (avatar etc) on my linux machine, and no matter what I’ve tried it refuses. So instead of wasting more time battling fltk I will switch to GTK.

Time Domain Audio Compression at 3.2 bits per Sample
Audio formats typically fall into one of three categories: “lossless”,
“complicated” or “bad”. After developing a
simple image format
last year, I tried to come up with an audio format that fits neither of these
categories.

In other words: a format that is lossy, simple and quite ok.
Naturally, it’s called QOA — the Quite OK Audio Format.

Bunny AI

I guess the Bunny developers also need some distraction from time to time, because they are working hard on S3 support for Bunny Storage for years already. 🐰 ⌘ Read more

I too would like to express a bit more if possible, especially if i have to refer to users and link URLs and images for example, having a limit that isn’t too much of a limit is kind of pointless i think. 🤔
