Encryption is an absolut ko-creterion. So i have two reasons why pidgin will remain on my system:
1.) The Devs of empathy told me on irc that i have to trust the people how run the communication-server! Or i have to set up an own server! That's both totally out of the question for the average user. Sometime i get the impression that some devs are ignorant. 2.) I can't understand how a piece of software which trample on users privacy can make it into ubuntu. Using tubes to control remote desktops without encryption is a great security issue. The underlying idea of empathy/telepathy may be good. But really important things are ignored. To move the responsibility to ONE protocol (jabber ) which may implement encryption in the future is really unsatisfying. -- empathy needs to support OTR encryption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296867 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
