I have a question for the #DeltaChat crowd: What if someone has a quick access to one of my devices, let’s say I forget to lock my phone or laptop and an attacker adds their phone as a secondary device to my profile. Is there any mitigation possible? Could I realize it? Could I disable their access?

    @lou_de_sel @delta @ArcaneChat Good question! If you use a vpn which doesn’t allow LAN connections you could at least make it harder for them to add their device as second device.

    Difficult to realize they have done this unless they start writing messages on your behalf and you can tell something was written that wasn’t you.
