I bet they were feeling much more whee than whoo that night.

Oh no!

Do I need to have 12 coasters? Well, no. But I didn't need the 8 ones I already have either, and Steve keeps pumping out bangers like this, so...

Reminded me of this little fella:

Dude publishing the most vaporware scam looking game pitch since The Day Before: publishing other people's games is the problem.

Standing legs? Man stands on his own 2. King sits on the 4 of his throne. Beggar sits on the floor?

Sir/madam/gentleperson, I commend your humbleness and civic posture in this conversation.

Holy crap! It's as if I had access to this blog post beforehand!

Joke aside, it is still a "trust me bro, we don't keep your clear text history" security model. AKA no guaranteed privacy.

Love how it highlights that big tech (much to capitalism's fault, TBH) can only drive innovation if the tech has a moat around it, if no one else can, or would, copy it and deploy it at a lower cost.

Which is... the argument that people use to defend capitalism? That capitalism drives innovation and makes it accessible to everyone at the lowest possible price.

I like the frugal tech idea as much as I like degrowth.

From their own response (and due to logical thinking about how the LLM service works): https://fosstodon.org/@notesnook/114927444378333659

Strictly speaking, if you consider Lumo's GPU servers to be one of the "ends", then yeah, it is E2EE (you and the server being the ends).

But Proton own the GPU servers, and therefore have access to their private keys, so they can decrypt your messages as they arrive, before they're deleted, which happens after they're encrypted with your asymetric key (so only you can read it) and stored with zero-access.

I don't consider this safe. In a system where you are only interfacing with a computer (and not other users), E2EE should mean that only you have access to the unencrypted data, at any given time. Which is how Proton Drive works.

Stated can be a long way away from reality. That website statement can be changed at a whim and doesn't have any legal binding.

If you wanna rely on encryption to protect your privacy, you have to be encrypted/protected from the service provider too, that's what E2EE is all about, and what many of Proton's services provide, but Lumo not.
