The article alleges that Matrix:

  • has links to Israeli intelligence.
  • sends a lot of sensitive data to matrix.org servers, even when Synapse is self-hosted.

Is this information accurate?

To be clear, I’m not saying Matrix is bad. I’m still using it. I just want to know more about it and who’s running the show, and hear other people’s opinions and arguments. Thanks for all the insightful comments.

If your friend’s hiding from Mossad, I think they’ll know to get it from F-Droid and turn on end-to-end encryption.
