Say No to the Bureaucrats! 😡 What’s Jack Dorsey’s App Up To in Nepal? 👀

So, like, The backdrop here? A paradise of political chaos with riots, corruption, and a very short-lived social media ban. I mean, couldn’t they have chosen a more exciting pastime than chaos like, I don’t know, fiddling instead?

Turns out, this trend isn’t just an outsider’s fascination. A chap (and I do mean chap) named “callebtc” noticed this spike and just had to let the digital word out. Because who needs mainstream media, right? Feel free to blame Yelp reviews for all your life choices!

callebtc stated their observations, which is kind of like finding fairies in your backyard and deciding to call it a scientific breakthrough. “Last week, Indonesia was having a download party, today Nepal joins in. Who wouldn’t want to join a rebellion while chatting? It’s the ultimate social media detox!”

Protest

So, Nepal decided to block a bunch of social media sites to stop complaints, because, you know, education and modern solutions. Last dignified thing to do, of course. Cue angry youth setting things ablaze and chanting slogans. Oh, and don’t forget the Parliament and the Supreme Court. Kind of a busy day, right?

The police were lousy with Triton phasers and sticks of dynamite, which seriously is some good old-timey entertainment! Alas, several people were both injured and deceased. Unless otherworldly forces intervened, the Prime Minister actually quit. Who would’ve thunk it?

Resignation

We’ve got citizens nipping out of centralized apps en masse, like typos getting their sorry selves to spell check. The trendy way to chat now includes these “freedom techs,” which are as decentralized as my stance at Starbucks. Now, Europe might let officials peek at messages before they get encrypted. Like Big Brother really needed more ways to snoop on us.

Why’d this become a thing again?

Centralized chat apps from the corporate overlords are like that fancy restaurant where they make you follow a dress code. Sure, everyone loves the free internet and semblance of security but how much more time will it take before people escape those honchos?

Jack Dorsey’s the boss?

Two months ago, Jack Dorsey decides we need a new app for genuinely secure chit-chats. Crafted for fuddy-duddy Bluetooth networks where the internet can’t touch your chats. Just remember, this concept is only as reliable as a second date unless you’ve actually met its value.

What Has This Got To Do With Signal or Other Messengers?

Other messaging apps like Signal and Session are trying this trick to boot, just proving that securing messages is more popular than getting a root canal. But the social media giants? They’ve got us by the shorts with those 3.48 billion regulars. That’s batting .304 in the popularity championship!
