Creating a secure messaging app is very hard. Creating secure archival for it is much harder.

In general, this essentially equals adding an additional participant to every chat. Something which has been tried and failed since the #Clipper chip and "Law Enforcement Agency Keys" aptly dubbed #LEAK.

The apparent amount of data extraction that goes along with #TeleMessage reminds me of saying:

"To get at all company secrets easily, sell them your password manager."

Here is a simulated view of Mars from above the Europa Clipper spacecraft during the slingshot flyby today at 17:55 UTC.

The locations of a few landers and rovers on the Martian surface are shown (hello Perseverance and Curiosity 👋). So are the orbital locations of a few Mars orbiter spacecraft. Jupiter beckons in the far distance.

[Focus on #Jupiter's magnetodisk ...] Located in the gas giant's #magnetosphere, it consists of electric fields and #plasma originating from the moon Io, the Jovian ionosphere and the solar wind.

Thanks to data from the #Juno mission, a team of researchers has succeeded in providing a comprehensive and modern description of the #physics of Jupiter's magnetodisk, both in terms of structure and dynamics: irap.omp.eu/en/2025/01/a-compr

“The plasma distributions thus deduced will serve as a reference for future missions such as #Juice and Europa #Clipper, currently en route to Jupiter.”

"...perhaps by using carriers' wiretapping capabilities."

With equipment provisioned with #CALEA facilities yet sold into a market where configuration and access control is entirely idiosyncratic and unsystematic, make that a certainty.

Forget the China aspect. Here's a case study of unintended consequences of deference to law enforcement demands.

Remember pro-#CLIPPER PR? "Access only available via court order..."

Warrants are for rule followers-- the exception.

Honored to receive this award for the work done by the team I led for our off-nominal launch Operational Readiness Test! 🚀
Honoré de recevoir cette récompense pour le travail mené par l’équipe que j’ai dirigée sur le dernier test de préparation opérationnelle d’Europa #Clipper!

After successfully completing our last system test for Europa #Clipper, I’m glad I got to walk around Kennedy Space Center and go back to some familiar sites! 🤩
Après le succès de notre dernier test système pour Clipper, j’ai eu la chance de retrouver des lieux familiers! 🤩
