No thanks


How do you think they would offer a messaging service if they didn't store the messages and attachments? The content has to live somewhere.

With ToS, we can assume that everything that is not laid down explicitly tends to err in favor of the company, not the user.

"we store all messages": they store everything and ther s no guarantee of processing, sharing or selling that data

"we store all messages encrypted end to end for sole the purposes of communication and can never access its contents" would provide many more guarantees.


This happens a lot on HN. I remember there was a court order for OpenAI to release ChatGPT chat history, and many of the comments were simply "why are they even storing chat history in the first place? ridiculous" as if that isn't a core feature of ChatGPT.

I don't know, ask iMessage, Google messages, and, ironically, whatsapp.

it lives on the user’s phone?

This is not the case for any modern chat app. When you send a message to someone, it isn't delivered peer to peer straight to your recipient. The message goes from you to the service provider's server from where delivery is attempted whenever that message is processed. Your recipient might be offline, out of cell service, phone turned off, or etc and the central server takes care of that problem. Similarly when you log in to the chat service on the web, on your phone, on a new device etc, the messages need to be synced to you from somewhere, and that's again the service provider's central server. All messaging services do this. These days, some encrypt your messages, but not even remotely all.

thanks


Grande!


Molto interessante, complimenti

I didn't even mention crypto ahah


The second half of the post is about an Etherium DAO. Last I checked, that's crypto.


Cryptography != Cryptocurrency

DAOs are software, a DAO could exist without the existence of cryptocurrencies


I didn't even mention crypto in this idea ahah


I got inspired by a french kiddo from the past while I was at #Ethcc6

It uses tsoa to automatically generate the mandatory openapi.yaml file starting from typescript types and decorators. If you know typescript / javascript with this framework you can develop ChatGPT plugins with ease


I'm really sorry if I activated your rage mode (I can offer you a beer to calm you down [not joking]), and for my bad english. I would never expected such big feedback from the community. That said, we are brainstorming about a way to pay the costs, and I agree with you, my initial idea was pretty bad. Thanks for sharing.
