That is totally unfounded. Their book of business is huge. You think Google is paying 32B of shareholder dollars because of a foreign intelligence agency? Keep your conspiracism to yourself.

Many different organizational cultures within the massive mothership org. Yet still remarkable that this famously top-down controlling and highly organized company doesn’t address some of these blatant and persistent shortcomings.

The duality of Apple is rather remarkable. They are among the most brilliant organizations of the modern world, and simultaneously one of the most incompetent (speaking both of this event and other times working with Apple teams).

Back when it was TextSecure.

Also, it's worth noting that the Signal team didn't work on WhatsApp. It was WhatsApp that chose to integrate the Signal protocol, which Open Whisper Systems/The Signal Foundation open-sourced their protocol.

That would drastically undermine the point of those, and any future, subsidies. I would also find it to be immoral.

Any individual view on the religious merits of kosher slaughter isn’t necessary in determining its humaneness. The facts stand on their own. There is of course a separate discussion to be had on the value of ritual slaughter to an individual or group’s religious expression, but I think that needn’t be considered in order to determine that animal killing according to kosher laws is not an inhumane method of killing an animal, and it’s rules of slaughter were among the first and most enduring form of an animal welfare.

Also tangential to this entire conversation is the merit/morality of animal consumption whatsoever, and whether it can be morally defended in the modern context, but I think that’s also best left for another day.

That is simply inaccurate and Kosher killing has always had humanity in animal killing front and centre, even far before the concept of treating animals humanely became widespread in human societies. The notion that an animal should be electrically shocked so that it is “stunned” before being killed is a matter for debate and is not definitely more or less humane.

There is often room for improvements, including reducing pre-slaughter stress, but when done right kosher slaughter is among the most humane forms of killing an animal. For example, with a skilled _shochet_ a cow can collapse within 10 seconds and not react at all to the cut itself. The requirements for even the sharpness of the knife are paramount, such that the animal feel no/a minimum of pain. Contrast this with the overwhelming majority of slaughterhouses, both today and over human history, and I hope you’ll see that kosher animal killing is far different from what you described above.

This is itself bad advice. The proper solution is a truly random password, committed to memory, and all others being stored in a password manager, which is itself secured by a separate strong password
