Whats’ app, while E2EE can still pull lots of information from who you message, how often, the size of the messages, and contact’s phone number. Messenger has the content of your messages and with whom you converse according to Facebook account info stored on Facebook servers. Snapchat has a record of all activity, contacts, and message content. The messages only disappear from app but not from SnapChat servers. All 3 of those record of how you live your life, except Whatsapp can’t see content of messages but still has your activities and contact phone numbers.
Signal was ordered to turn over user content to court and Signal only had when the user last connected to the service and date of account creation. Signal had zero information about messages, when messages were sent, or to whom.
I thought I might get questioned on it, no prob Bob. For Linux, both the kernel and the 400 distributions, I say schizophrenic they are all labelled as Linux but they can’t function together. The Arch kernel is different from the Parabola kernel, and the Fedora kernel and the kernel.org generic kernel from the Slackware kernel, The way Pllasma runs on Gentoo has been modified from how Plasma runs on Devuan. Again, they all fall under “Linux” but can function quite different and any 3rd party software has to be modified to be customized for each distribution. If a program in Debian can’t function, SUSE people might not be able solve it if they don’t know the Debian layout. The Linux eco-systems is very fractured, divided, yet all run Linux kernel, they are the same but different because they’re distributions, but run the same system but not compatible with each other, it’s schizophrenic.
In comparison to OpenBSD, it is on group of people that develop the OpenBSD kernel, OpenBSD system files and libraries, with a single point of focus behind their engineering and design, and develop their own software management tools. Similar with FreeBSD, that there is a set team that develop the FreeBSD kernel who have nothing at all to do with OpenBSD kernel. What works on FreeBSD is not going to work on FreeBSD. And the FreeBSD team develops their own FreeBSD system files and libraries with their own FreeBSD design and engineering so that each BSD is their own standalone operating system. A FreeBSD kernel will never function or be recognized by an OpenBSD system. Porting a program to OpenBSD is not going to work in FreeBSD because the whole system is designed differently, that’s why each BSD is an operating system and why BSD does not have distributions. FreeBSD will never be able to read a NetBSD file.
