Only scenarios where encryption = privacy: * Service is hosted by third party & e2e encrypted * Service is p2p & encrypted in transit.

@aral Privacy is best defined as security from the point of view of a single stakeholder. Main security issue avoiding interdependance -
@Engbrg I like that definition :) -
@aral We need to stop this security vs. privacy nonsense. Security is bad if it depends on trusting systems that will fail - inevitably -
@Engbrg That we don’t agree on. Security is used by corporations to whitewash privacy; we must keep calling that out. -
@aral Corporations dont improve their security by undermining yours - on the contrary. We do not help disc by allowing terminology pollution

@dfreniche I’ll answer that the moment you tell me if the real problem is smoking or obesity ;) -
