Transparency report: #deltachat gave out data for the following number of users in the last years: 0, nada, zilch.
granted, it helps to not have data to begin with 😀
#Telegram is the exact opposite: they have _all_ the data about users, message histories, contacts, group and channel memberships, phone numbers, media files, bot interactions etc .... all in the clear on their central server, ready to be grabbed.

When using the client deltachat, data is stored and passed trough the corresponding email servers. Request for data can only go to the server admins. And there was non request that resulted in handing data over? How do you know/assume that?

in reply to desirable_dialogue • • •no, stupid authorities think @delta is some kind of chat messenger similar to telegram, whatsup, so they request data from them too.
@delta has been publishing such requests from time to time..

in reply to desirable_dialogue • • •in the meantime use #DeltaChat or #OpenGPG to have your email stored encrypted on servers.. don't rely on server admins.. especially corporate ones.

Unknown parent • • •@x_cli two questions:
What does PFS have to do with minimizing metadata?
Can you link a real-world case where PFS played a role and protected someone from repressive persecution?
