I currently use Telegram for my friends and family, but have reluctantly come to the conclusion that the UK Government is either reaching agreement for backdoors with messaging services, or is trying its hardest to.
I’m also on Element/Matrix. Before I try to get my contacts to join me on there, should I be aware of any privacy issues or is that a good place to head?
Then your point…?
Only that you need the phone to setup the account. i.e. it doesn’t have to be the phone you use- it can be a hotel phone or whatever.
It used to have to be the phone you used for messaging.
