We build Signal in the open, with publicly available source code for our applications and servers. To keep Signal a free global communication service without spam, we must depart from our totally-open posture and develop one piece of the server in private: a system for detecting and disrupting spam campaigns. Unlike encryption protocols, which are designed to be provably secure even if everyone knows how they work, spam detection is an ongoing chore for which there is no concrete resolution and for which transparency is a major disadvantage.

It is off-topic and smear campaign against me, my work that is all. How is that relevant to topic. It s not.

Disagreeing with your statements is not smear campaign against you.

Claiming something without been involved, checking so-called made up facts and abusing it on a high traffic website is a smear campaign, as per definition.

It makes it so or so not better because it is still off-topic. It is also not your argument at all, it is something you found on the internet or someone send you and an attempt to discredet me, nothing more.

The problem is that from what I know those facts are not made up, I'm not abusing this and Lemmy is not really high traffic website. If my goal would be to spread this information about you, then I would definitely use any other website but I'm only using those facts as part of our conversation so that's completely different situation.

It makes it so or so not better because it is still off-topic. It is also not your argument at all, it is something you found on the internet or someone send you and an attempt to discredet me, nothing more.

If it's offtopic then just end this part of our discussion at this point. In future, if you don't want people to remind you of your past then simply change your username or just don't do anything bad.

  • The problem is that I provided evidence that the so-called facts are made up. You refuse. I said GitHub website, not Lemmy for the high-traffic abuse argument, which is true. Besides the GitHub staff closed the thread and the members got warned, even this fact is presented by my link which you still ignore to accept. Please read the GitHub ToS regarding abusing issue tickets to harass someone, it is harassment because they never contacted me in the first place, my email and my Twitter etc. is all known and welcome for constructive criticism.
  • The problem is that you answer here in order to attempt to discreet me, please provide evidence that not one of the arkenfox members are behind this account. Those people showed multiple times that they chase me - as a person - across multiple platforms because they are obsessed with me and that I might do a better job.
  • It is off-topic the moment you try to discredit me with an internet link which has nothing to do with facts, Signal or that Signal now closes parts of their code and servers.
  • I never did anything bad, I stand to my failures, and I always did. Everyone makes mistakes and professionalism is to stand to them and apologize, whenever I did mistake I did mention it and I did apologize.

You accuse someone which you never tried to contact before, come with a link which had to be closed b an GitHub staff due to misinformation and call this fact. According to you, earth must be flat because it is also written somewhere on the internet.

I urge you to stop spreading misinformation regarding my person because you want to discredit me to make your stuff look better. You failed here miserably. Please stay on the topic, Lemmy is FOSS community. Signal is not anymore FOSS which was the reason it got attention in the first place.

We have sufficient alternatives, they are mentioned here by fine people of Lemmy.

No, you didn't.

Besides the GitHub staff closed the thread and the members got warned, even this fact is presented by my link which you still ignore to accept.

The issue is still open and last comment was written two weeks ago so either you live in some different reality or your so-called evidence is made up.

The only member who got warned and then permanently banned in that situation was you. Your GitHub account is still banned since 2018. Now try to convince me and others that this happened because GitHub stuff was wrong and they don't know their own ToS.

Please read the GitHub ToS regarding abusing issue tickets to harass someone, it is harassment because they never contacted me in the first place, my email and my Twitter etc. is all known and welcome for constructive criticism.

Please quote the part of GitHub those which states that the users have to contact you in any way before exposing you and showing evidence against you.

The problem is that you answer here in order to attempt to discreet me, please provide evidence that not one of the arkenfox members are behind this account. Those people showed multiple times that they chase me - as a person - across multiple platforms because they are obsessed with me and that I might do a better job.

Can you show me any proof that anyone related to arkenfox is chasing you over multiple platforms and that I'm doing the same?

It is off-topic the moment you try to discredit me with an internet link which has nothing to do with facts, Signal or that Signal now closes parts of their code and servers.

You were the one spreading misinformation, not facts, so I reminded people about who you are so they can better understand why are you behaving that way and that they shouldn't worry about you attacking them if they disagree with you.

I stand to my failures

By writing really long post, spreading misinformations and users who exposed you and claiming that amount of knowledge is measured by number of your repositories.

I never did anything bad

You should better educate yourself if you think that plagiarizing other's work is nothing bad.

Everyone makes mistakes and professionalism is to stand to them and apologize

And that's what you should do few years ago instead of writing long and meaningless post.

You accuse someone which you never tried to contact before

You have no way to know that.

come with a link which had to be closed b an GitHub staff due to misinformation and call this fact.

The GitHub issue is still open and even active. The only user who got punished in this situation was you.

According to you, earth must be flat because it is also written somewhere on the internet.

No, because it was proven that earth is not flat. You still didn't prove that you didn't plagiarize other's work.

I urge you to stop spreading misinformation regarding my person because you want to discredit me to make your stuff look better. You failed here miserably.

You are the one trying to accuse me of harassment only because I gave you the link to facts about yourself.

Please stay on the topic, Lemmy is FOSS community. Signal is not anymore FOSS which was the reason it got attention in the first place.

It doesn't matter. If you are using Lemmy, it doesn't mean you can't use messenger that was FOSS for most of the times.

We have sufficient alternatives, they are mentioned here by fine people of Lemmy. This is why Signal is for FOSS enthusiasts dead, and this statement is not wrong.

You are wrong again. Signal is dead but only for you, just one tiny person that is trying to prove that he did nothing bad.
