A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Beeper was pretty dang hyped for its universal chat, I kept seeing it mentioned a while ago while it was in a closed beta.
Because I participated in the closed beta I get Beeper free for life. I've been using Beeper now for almost 3.5 years and I love it.
What is your stance on being able to give encryption keys to a third party without the other participants of a chat consenting, let alone knowing about it?
If someone in my contacts used bridges, effectively breaking e2ee, I'd want to know about it.
Ideally, people should not be allowed to do that without informing their contacts, at the very least.
