Why does it look like Signal might introduce backdoors?

The amount of my students that wrote the whole email in the subject line is crazy. At first I thought it was a mistake or something. But there are sooo many...

They also don't know what a file browser/explorer is. As soon as the download notification is gone, the file doesn't exist anymore.

Giving files proper names? Unheard of!

I think it's important to note that Kagi uses Yandex, besides others, as a provider and pays them for it. Yandex is Russian owned. Might not be a deciding factor for everyone, but I personally think we shouldn't pay money towards Russia. And the US for that matter...

This has been brought up multiple times and the Kagi CEO(?), Vlad, said this won't change and Kagi doesn't care about geopolitical stuff and just wants to offer the best search engine. Which is fair, but I think not supporting a tyrannical, war hungry government is important.

Yeah! To me LibreOffice just looks dated and, to be honest, shit. OnlyOffice has a much cleaner interface.

Sure, everyone got the money to do that... Everything you have written in this thread so far is quite ... let's go with reality shifted.

Isn't raindrop.io also Russian?

It's about sending the message that the world doesn't need the US.

Ohh, that's a good point!

 

Or do we also import stuff?

I can't back this up but I highly doubt that the media is played through Plex' server.
