Joe-FastFeet Thank you for such a detailed explanation of a very useful feature. Its implementation would indeed be extremely necessary and in demand. Tell me, how soon will it appear in the application?
There is no specific timeline.
Joe-FastFeet However, to be honest, I was saddened by the fact that your team did not have sufficient funds to resolve the issue of an independent audit. Are you planning to make your app on a paid subscription? This would allow you to have funds in the operational management of the project and ensure its stable development.
We are currently running solely on donations and have no intention of operating this as an enterprise.
Joe-FastFeet Sorry, I forgot to discuss another important issue with you. Do you think Signal intentionally stopped encrypting the database, thereby allowing forensics to seize all application data, but at the everyday level allowing the user to believe that their Signal data is reliably protected? At the same time, the use of the application does not allow either attackers or governments to intercept and decrypt the application's traffic. That is, such deliberate assistance to criminologists precisely in cases when required by the courts, and sufficiently protected use in all other cases.
Signal was never interested in Endpoint security. Moxie said himself the old implementation was a useless screenlock.
Joe-FastFeet managed to read a few complaints from users on the project's github page, and just like them I was quite annoyed by several cases of strange activity and a brisk increase in data traffic when the application was not used explicitly. It was about several hundred megabytes, I think about 700, which is simply bewildering. You've managed to figure it out and solve this problem What was the reason for such a sharp jump in traffic at a time when the user was practically not using it? https://github.com/mollyim/mollyim-android/issues/590 I would also be interested in your opinion about the requested function of hiding the number when managing https://github.com/mollyim/mollyim-android/issues/606 settings Thank you in advance for your answer.
The 700MB was not reproducible. That's why it's still an open issue.
I can tell you that some institutions use Molly on their platforms and monitor what data goes where 24/7.
Finally, I must make it clear that I am not here to defend Molly or convince you to use it. I can only tell you that there are some reports in certain circles that clearly show that not a single investigative authority is able to access the encrypted data.
