Everyone is reading. Some white-hat hackers submitted 200 vulnerability reports about the MAX messenger.

And Pavel Durov explains that even Western messengers, such as Signal, can be dangerous.

That is why, in Telegram secret chats, message contents are never shown in push notifications. Since 2013, secret chats have remained the safest convenient way to communicate. Signal, funded by the U.S. government, has too many questionable dependencies on other American companies (AWS, MS, Intel SGX…).

❗️From now on, the phones of people crossing the Russian border are increasingly being subjected to strict and sometimes many-hour inspections.

Citizens who have gone through this say that the “agencies” take them to a special room, ask them to unlock the device and enter the password, and then easily “download” the contents, including deleted information, by connecting some device of their own with a cable.

They find all deleted photos and log into all accounts.

In addition to the standard questions about Ukraine, they ask whether those entering have communicated with opposition figures, whether they have received suspicious messages, what they think of Navalny, whether they have donated to the Armed Forces of Ukraine and extremists, whether a VPN is installed, and which channels they are subscribed to.

If suspicions and inconsistencies arise, the interrogation continues.

After their smartphones are scanned, many report the restoration of old “erased” data and long-deleted apps.

Some suspect that surveillance software is installed on smartphones during the inspection.

It would be interesting to hear Pavel Durov’s opinion on how realistic this is and, if so, what surveillance software is being installed.

It is noteworthy that during interrogations at the borders, small children are left alone outside the door for many hours without any possibility of communicating with their parents.

Specialists recommend carrying a clean phone with a new SIM card across the border.

All of this concerns not only Russians, but also citizens of other countries, both those entering and those leaving.

Many suspect that people are subjected to inspection on a tip-off from passport control. Supposedly, the “unreliable” have already been marked with a checkbox somewhere.
