Comment on Signal under fire for storing encryption keys in plaintext on desktop app
ChillPill@lemmy.world 2 months agoMaybe its time to rethink desktop security. I realize that there is credential manager on windows, keychain on mac, and similar on gnu/linux; even with that it seems for a lot of services “all” you need to do is steal a cookie and all of a sudden you are someone else.

For an example of rethinking desktop security, see wayland in linux, and how ll accessibility programs now don’t cannot possibly work.

seems to be the way both apple and MS are going.
