@vieuxrenard You are asking good questions and at the same time I'm not sure if they are on point or how much they overlap with the solution. When identical logos/nicks are blocked, then there's unicode lookalikes and cropped/artefacted logos that suffice to trick users. Further, people likely fall for much more obvious fakes. Even when you tell them beforehand. Then there's the psychological aspect that the more security one adds on the surface, the more people will solely rely on others keeping them safe, driving them to be less cauteous. Recently some people claim tech to be too complicated and techies too elitist and exclusive-minded. But when people ignore omnipresent warnings, maybe we should keep them away for their own safety? I don't know. So serious question: where exactly is the bar? What's reasonable counter-measures to such fakes? Do you have ideas in mind? @signalapp
