You sell out to twitter and that’s it? A professional tweeter? That was your ambition? How about an Ice Cream Sandwich update?

I seriously doubt Moxie will be back to Whispersystems. Twitter/Saudi money purchased Whispersystems to stop free and easy secured communications. A political move to suppress dissidents WORLDWIDE.

I would like to see the specifics of the buyout. Probably paid him a couple of mill to cease all work on these once great apps. Paid to shut up.
The next questions are for Moxie:
How does it feel to sell out?
How does it feel to be a millionaire?
How does it feel to be a political pawn? (I guess it does not matter when you are a millionaire?).
a few words once in a while would be nice, some indication of how long “temporarily unavailable” might be. or an uninstaller for those without patience or skills. your silence plus twitter’s loving embrace of censorship is making us nervous.
