Paris

listening to meredith whittaker, president of the signal foundation, speak on privacy in the age of AI at the american library in /paris tonight

fyi, there's a q&a at the end, if anyone herr has any burning questions

building /quidli 🦑, casting in /justinahn, daoing in /🍊 & /🟪

do they have any thoughts about the TeleMessage scandal? does the foundation think they should play a role in allowing for or creating signal encrypted apps that can be configured to be compliant for government employees?

still mostly analog. patterns, builder, entrepreneur, analyzing your transactions since 2016

historically signal has not been open to 3rd party implementations of their protocol and using their servers. are they going to clamp down on this further due to this negative light on signal caused by a 3rd party TeleMessage + govt workers?

one thing she's already insisting on is that signal does not want an open contribution based ecosystem 

according to her, their approach to open source is more to demonstrate their commitment to transparency to users, not necessarily to have external people build along
