  • I live in France. if I say I use Signal or Grapheneos, peoples who consume major newspaper jokingly say : “oh, you’re using the criminal thing, you must be a drug dealer/terrorist”. It’s a joke, but still, I can see that the misunderstanding of those tools are in their head. So French news does a good job to make them look bad. And recently the Anssi (French agency for security and information system, depending from security ministry) , published a public pdf about mobile phone threat in France since 2015. They talk about hacker, security breach, tools and tips for population to prevent risk. They recommend to use Signal over Sms. But they never mention Grapheneos or any other rom.

    Remember school where I learned to write number in full text. It’s so long. Soixante dix-neuf I 79 Quatre-vingt I 80 Quatre-vingts un I 81 … Quatre-vingts treize I 93 … Cent soixante-dix neuf I 179

    It’s plain math

    In French part Belgium and Switzerland, they use something that make more sense like Septante | 70 Septante Un | 71 Octante I 80 Nonante I 90
