To be frank with you, humans are the weakest security point in any system. Even if you did somehow (impossibly) 100% secure your device... you’re literally sending everything to X other family members who don't care about security anyway and take zero preventative measures. That's sort of the point of a chat app. All they would need to do is target your family instead of you to get the exact same info - this is how Facebook has everyone's telephone number and profile photo, even if they don't have an account. And if it's a WhatsApp data breach... well. Your family is just one in a sea of millions of potentially better/easier targets.
If there's anything interesting about your family chats that is actually secret info, it probably shouldn't be put into text anywhere except maybe a password manager. Just tell them not to send passwords or illegal stuff or security question info via whatsapp. It's all you can realistically do in situations like this.
We literally cannot keep all information private from everyone all the time, you have to pick and choose your battles. And even then, you'll still lose some, even if you're perfect.
That’s true in the sense that if a very sophisticated organization directly targets your family chat for surveillance, they’re going to find a way to access its content no matter what communication method you use.
Threat modeling is core to security, and that kind of threat probably isn’t the issue here. Mass surveillance, both government and corporate is, and neither is likely to secretly install malware on a family-members phone that can access the contents of the group chat. Doing that to large numbers of people would get them caught; they save it for valuable targets.
Governments openly forcing the install of spyware, as I’ve read China does in some cases would be an exception; you cannot have a secure conversation involving a device so compromised.
Am I the only one not getting that reference? Whatever it is: is it mainstream enough for the Memes community? (I mean... it could be, not the first time I'm out of the loop)
Granted I haven’t seen it yet, but its a recent popular anime about an elf, set years after she and her party defeated the demon king. Also seems to explore her relationship with humanity given they age, grow old and die in whats a short period of time to her since she’s an elf.
Imagine being the person with an ego so fragile they can't help but edit her statement this way
this you?
At least you tried 😂
(what you did do though is manage to give a live demonstration of exactly the kind of man women know we're better off without lmfao)

You're literally doing it again.. Are you going to call me hysterical next, and then mansplain your "joke" to me? 😂
Your bullshit didn't land, feel free to keep digging yourself deeper in it, but I'm going to excuse myself at this point lol
This article was amended on 30 May 2019 to remove remarks by Paul Dolan that contained a misunderstanding of an aspect of the American Time Use Survey data.
Fuck, they really did him a disservice with this edit. He wrote a whole book based on the survey data.
