今日，Telegram创始人杜罗夫在其个人频道发布文章，抨击其竞争对手、加密即使聊天工具Signal的加密技术受到美国政府当局的干预。加密聊天工具Signal在年初刚刚允许用户设置属于自己的用户名，与Telegram的功能越来越相似。
文章称，🤫 Twitter 创始人杰克·多西（Jack Dorsey）分享了一个故事，揭露了 Signal（一款据称“安全”的消息应用程序）的现任领导人是美国国务院用来在国外推翻政权的活动分子。
美国政府花费 300 万美元打造 Signal 的加密技术，如今 WhatsApp、Facebook Messenger、Google Messages 甚至 Skype 都采用了完全相同的加密技术。看起来，美国的大型科技公司几乎不被允许构建不受政府干预的加密协议 🐕🦺
🕵️♂️ 我采访过的许多重要人士都表示，他们的“私人”Signal 消息曾被美国法院或媒体利用来对付他们。但每当有人对他们的加密技术提出质疑时，Signal 的典型回应是“我们是开源的，所以任何人都可以验证一切正常”。然而，这是一个诡计 🤡
🕵️♂️ 与 Telegram 不同，Signal 不允许研究人员确保他们的 GitHub 代码与用户 iPhone 上运行的 Signal 应用程序中使用的代码相同。Signal 拒绝为 iOS 添加可重现的版本，从而关闭了社区的 GitHub 请求。而 WhatsApp 甚至没有发布其应用程序的代码，因此他们关于“隐私”的所有讨论都是一个更明显的马戏团诡计 💤
🛡 Telegram 是唯一一款非常受欢迎的消息服务，它允许每个人确保其所有应用程序确实使用在 Github 上发布的相同开源代码。在过去十年中，Telegram 秘密聊天一直是唯一一种可验证隐私的流行通信方式 💪
原文如下：
🤫 A story shared by Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter, uncovered that the current leaders of Signal, an allegedly “secure” messaging app, are activists used by the US state department for regime change abroad 🥷
🥸 The US government spent $3M to build Signal’s encryption, and today the exact same encryption is implemented in WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Google Messages and even Skype. It looks almost as if big tech in the US is not allowed to build its own encryption protocols that would be independent of government interference 🐕🦺
🕵️♂️ An alarming number of important people I’ve spoken to remarked that their “private” Signal messages had been exploited against them in US courts or media. But whenever somebody raises doubt about their encryption, Signal’s typical response is “we are open source so anyone can verify that everything is all right”. That, however, is a trick 🤡
🕵️♂️ Unlike Telegram, Signal doesn’t allow researchers to make sure that their GitHub code is the same code that is used in the Signal app run on users’ iPhones. Signal refused to add reproducible builds for iOS, closing a GitHub request from the community. And WhatsApp doesn’t even publish the code of its apps, so all their talk about “privacy” is an even more obvious circus trick 💤
🛡 Telegram is the only massively popular messaging service that allows everyone to make sure that all of its apps indeed use the same open source code that is published on Github. For the past ten years, Telegram Secret Chats have remained the only popular method of communication that is verifiably private 💪
