Asking for your opinion on decentralized applications' usability
Asking for your opinion on decentralized applications' usability
Hi all! I’m working on my cyber security bachelor’s thesis and am reaching out to gather insights from users who use decentralized messaging applications.
I would be incredibly thankful if you could find the 2 to 4 minutes to fill out the form. Your experience in the matter is incredibly valuable.
You’ll find the survey at https://questionnaire.ink/412758
Your responses are confidential and will be used solely for supporting my thesis. No personally identifiable information is collected.
Thanks!
The entire postulate behind security is distrust and you are asking volunteers of a highly surveiled hunted group to trust a random internet stranger?
How do you even know the data wouldn't be purposely done wrong to make it garbage?
This is like those thousands of Reddit threads
Dear Reddit, what is your [ Insert Blackmail ] secrets you can't tell anyone ??? (Which you gotta know extortionists scrape and slurp up)
The mindfuck of it all. Has literally everyone lost the ability to think.
Edit: Look I'm not trying to be rude, but the sheer audacity required to not see this conflict of interest and conundrum is mind boggling, and to hell with niceties, the field of security is clearly more important. Just look at the epic meltdown this week of the xz back door. And whose to say who is really a student and who is a state actor working for a hostile? There's no way to know that such a request is made in innocence and sincerity when our nicities can be weaponized like they were with xz.
Edit 2: The title could just as well read, dear* hobbyist community, private corporations or the military (which ever one) is suddenly interested in your hobby group, we are collecting data on you and what better way than to have you dox yourself, please comply.
