Texting my spouse in another country with random nonsense, even though with our data plan, it's $0.10 a text.

Can't you use something like Telegram/Signal/WhatsApp and avoid the charges?

[-] Neon@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

Signal. Whatsapp maybe. But Telegram isn't even encrypted e2e. Never Telegram.

Wait.. whaat ?? There are actual people who knowingly prefer WhatsApp to telegram ? I truly prefer telegram to WhatsApp, and am very surprised about this. To me WhatsApp = Facebook and I cannot fathom to use it if I can avoid it.

To be clear they're both shit from a privacy perspective.

Telegram has effectively no security by default. WhatsApp has better security on paper with meaningful end to end encryption. But Facebook still get your meta data and they scan images in the chat to check for illegal data.

That said I basically agree with you for insecure conversations. Telegram might have access to more of my data in a chat but they don't connect it up with all of the data Facebook has tracking me across the internet.
