.@signalapp just rolled out quantum-resistant messaging to billions of people. This is a big deal. Let me walk you through what's happening and why I think this matters. For non-cryptography folks: the simple version: You know how we worry about hackers? Well, future quantum

Anthropic has done remarkable work in advancing AI safety and transparency - but their latest policy update raises tough questions around user privacy. As a privacy researcher, what strikes me most about Anthropic's policy changes is how they reveal the fundamental
