@stilkov You’re being ironic, right? I mean I know that the FB/PGP stuff works, I’ve tried it, but does it *solve* FB’s privacy problems…?

@girba @tastapod @erikdoe @stilkov This conversation made my day and I haven't even gefrühstückt yet (not sarcasm).

@delitescere @girba @tastapod @erikdoe I didn’t know “frühstücken” had joined “gesundheit”, “blitzkrieg”, and “kindergarten” yet. Lovely.

@stilkov you know we have stolen "lebensabschnittgefährter", too, right? @girba @tastapod @erikdoe

@delitescere I didn’t! But it’s worth it. @girba @tastapod @erikdoe

@stilkov @delitescere So, there is hope that “Datensparsamkeit” can make it, too. Maybe Facebook can help us. @girba @tastapod

@stilkov They promise not to mine your data: blog.whatsapp.com/245/Why-we… but aren’t great on security! pando.com/2014/02/21/the-pro… #awkward

@tastapod Yes, they promised to do so in 2012 … but I have zero trust in Facebook allowing them to keep that promise.

@stilkov Their business model is to charge $1/year and (deliberately) not care about the data. So either they are fraudulent or ok. #ymmv
