This sounds a lot like the guy posting early on in the covid thread about protein spikes and vitamin D dumps killing your kidneys or some such.
And vaguely constructed like the Sasquatch and llama thread. Nothing is secure in your conversations and plans. Bank on that. Keep your close group small, your info brief and don’t tell EVERY damn thing you know to people you DON’T know. |

It's almost certainly info gathered from point-of-use attacks (i.e. they either are in possession of, or bugging*, the phone someone is sending Signal-encrypted messages/calls to), rather than "FBI Surveillance Person #54356261" decrypting Signal transmissions in real/near-real time.
The encryption is sound....it's the tradecraft (or lack thereof) that makes the traffic vulnerable. *-in this case, "bugging" includes them loading (or tricking you into loading) malware onto your phone that lets them read in/listen in to all your traffic and activities. |

Quoted: No worries, keep watching Unsolved Mysteries. A year ago Google's qubit platform solved a 10,000yr problem in 3min ! The fastest best supercomputer vs Google qubit. You believe Google is ahead of the govt in computing? I will bet ya the govt is about 100-1000 better than anything Google has made public (just a hunch, wink wink). Just saying the obvious. https://www.tweaktown.com/news/67738/google-quantum-computer-solves-issue-3-minutes-versus-10-000-years/index.html View Quote Your info is about high bit count public key encryption, using the factorization of large numbers, it's not about true symmetric private key encryption. You still need to securely share the private key, so there is a systemic vulnerability, but if you share it via secure methods AES is still impractical to brute force and it gets exponentially worse as the key length increases. Barring a flaw in the algo it's still a problem. Which is why they probably don't bother trying, there are easier ways. |

Quoted: Using a old phone that still works on the cell systems, is a good choice. Chuck Schumer uses an old flip phone. ;) Old phones don't protect you from Fed eavesdropping on your calls, but the phone is limited for the Fed, etc. They don't like people who use old phones.

Quoted: You are not paying attention to what's going on. Millions of people have abandoned WhatsApp (for many reasons) and jumping to Signal. The Fed gave no info on how they obtained such data that warranted their Nat Terror warning. I not 100% what you are asking. The Fed basically taps backbone lines and can scrub that data very very fast. Abilene (internet-2) is magnitudes faster than your everyday internet. ;) The datacenter in Utah is full of qubit computing! View Quote More people of flocked to Telegram than Signal. Why not mention that one? |

If you're not using three orthogonal encryption schemes and a one time pad, you're fucked. Ceiling cat is tired of watching you masturbate and gave them copies of your pads.

Quoted: To move lots of data real fast , use internet-2 (you can't use internet-2 btw). To scrub and chomp on data real fast, use qubit computing (crypto miners know about this, so why not you?) Back doors for the Fed are passe, there's no need to back door into any one device. They can collect all the data and then easily cherry pick out the data streams of interest, and then feed that to the qubit scrubbers, which can decrypt very fast! The Fed can also catalog all internet traffic, and archive it. Storage space is no issue. The internet as you know it is limited in ability to transmit data, it can only produce so much data for any given time period, and the Fed can easily take it all in.

I didn't know so I went looking, the internet generates 3k terabytes of traffic a MINUTE.
Lots can probably be filtered pretty quickly and not analyzed but even if 5% is stored for later....thats a fucking lot of data. beer in hand napkin math says...about 22k terabytes a day. No way thats on spinning rust. |

It isn't really material, but that feels low to me too. A minute of 4k video is about 375 mb. So 3000 terabytes is only about eight million people worldwide streaming 4k video at the same time. That's only about 4% of Netflix's worldwide subscribers. And that's excluding all other internet traffic. The key point though, as you mentioned, is that the internet has a fucking lot of data. |

Okay.
But it seems to me that general traffic analysis would result in some meaningful data without any ability to see the conversation. Why do you think that's not the deal in this case? |

why does anyone think that these "secure" messaging apps are even secure?? NSA, CIA and others have 100 percent access to them.. heck they prob even fund the apps.
