Radical left? In the US? Where? Everywhere else, even Bernie Sanders wouod be called a center to moderate right-wing candidate. The US has lost its perspective because mostly they can only choose between extremely right-wing (Democrats) and fundamentalist right wing (Republican). Trump is - for a Republican - fairly moderated, compared to say a religious fundamentalist like Cruz.
If I were American I would vote for Sanders. However, if the choice was between Trump and H. Clinton it would be a close call, I'm not sure which of those I dislike the most. My guess is that Trump is a little less a warmonger than Clinton.
Yeah well, most Dutch people know that the Dutch "investigation" that didn't even bother to ask for the radar images is supposed to point to the Russians as the guilty party. Any other outcome would be politically problematic.

And that is why they are developing those nukes: to make sure it stays that way. Without them, Kim might already have suffered the same fate as Saddam by the only nation that started multiple wars of aggression in the 21st century.
That's what WhatsApp is implementing too. Even better, Blackberry has explicitly stated they prefer to be able to give shady law enforcement departments access to your messages while WhatsApp CAN'T do that with encrypted messages. And, WhatsApp uses not the pgp model with the same encryption key for all messages but perfect forward secrecy with a new key for each mssage. So even with a confiscated phone someone will not be able to decrype messages that are already deleted on the pnone but intercepted in transit.
Well, it does make sense in that sms is completely unencrypted and subject to mass surveillance. WhatsApp is implementing the Axolotl end to end encryption protocol on all systems, and dropping those where it can't be implemented properly so the unencrypted fallback option can be removed. About costs: I know a lot oof people with a smartphone without a data plan (quite common outside the US) who use iton Wifi only.
For the price Americans pay for internet I could send all my messages via sms/mms as well. However, for the approx $20 I pay now for unlimited internet and 100 call minutes I can not.
Well, on Symbian S60 there is not much else. The old Skype version on that OS is killed off by MS, iber will on;y run on some of tha last Symbian S3 models and now WhatsApp is killed off. SMS and MMS is in most of the world not a real fallback due to costs, chatting through sms will cost quickly more than a cheap Android phone.
They want to remove support because they can't or won't port their new Axolotl encryption library to thiose OSes. And they want to remove the option to send unencrypted messages completely to give the FBI, NSA, BND and similar organisations the finger.

A new nearly-universal root method is always handy.

"Because we classify cyberwarfare as a form of warfare"
You mean the US has already declared war on the rest of the world with the NSA's actions?

Those ways usually get you on the receiving end of very expensive lawsuits. They made sure there won't be any money left for that.

Try a Firefox clone like Palemoon http://www.palemoon.org/ . The flexibility of Firefox but without the would-be Chrome UI crap.
WhatsApp does not show ads.
Most people don't care about web-based clients. Only some computer proffessionals do.
Wechat... I hope ypou're not discusing something sensitive, or something the Chinese goernement wants to censor like the Tiananmen Square massacre.
Where can I download a Symbian S60 version of Telegram?
No, that can only work if you use shitty encryption like Telegram. Central servers that store the messages are a big no-no for decent e2e encryption.
Morse code reinvented. :-)
Even better message services don't store the message on a single server ready to harvest for any hacker or 3-letter criminal organisation.
Like "universal inbox"? Meh, never liked that idea.

End to end encryption with the Axolotl protocol.
I think They should make a real statement and drop windows mobile 10 support as well. It has a market share comparable to Symbian.
