Google integrates its own services in both the phone and messaging apps: namely spam reporting and blocking. I’m guessing that other major brands also have services to that end.
Google’s ‘Messages’ also has a button to make a video call, and I dunno even what app and protocol would be used for that, as I never used video calls and don’t have any Google apps for that functionality.
Ironically, this is the comment in this thread that’s not paranoid enough, because to my knowledge both Google and Samsung use their own closed-source message and phone apps, along with other standard apps. (Idk about other vendors, but the same is pretty likely for major brands.)
None of what’s been mentioned above requires server-side processing.
That worked hilariously in ‘Deus Ex’ when a friend had both of Denton’s legs shot to shit. Denton crawled around for hours, then stood right up in a cutscene, and after it ended, flopped back on the ground and resumed crawling.
Afaik he sorta changed his position later on, or rather said that he would be making content for phones from then on. I imagine he still wasn’t happy with watching a traditional film on a phone.
‘Twin Peaks’ is definitely the case where the film was made for those who already saw the series. Basically, one can treat it as a flashback in the series. Kinda the same way as flashbacks in ‘Simpsons’ and such are not to be watched first.
Should work alright if the server handles Unicode correctly, and isn’t one of those ass sites that put restrictions on the password’s length and composition. Hashing functions don’t even care if you’re feeding them raw binary.
Thanks to my password manager, commas are among the more tame characters that occur in my passwords.
Passwords are typically sent to the server and hashed there.
