[QUOTE=TooHotForYou;7407611]Anybody met Dixie? 36 white girl with tattoos and piercings. I think she's legit but something feels off when talking to her.[/QUOTE]She's been reviewed and is basically mediocre to bad. She's real, and you'll get laid, but apparently she rushes and she's closer to a cheap escort than a SB, but wants SB prices. Better fish in the sea.

Wants more for BBFS like 400. Didn't see any problems with her but your mileage may vary. All I can say is she was one of my better lays.
Damn, so many unstable, bipolar, crazy women on the site. I've been back on the site for a couple of months and 2 out of the 4 that I met turned out to be totally deranged. Both threatened me if I didn't give them money.
This latest one was the first I ever gave an allowance to (usually I do ppm). She seemed great for two weeks and we were spending lot of time together. The sex wasn't even the most important part of it. But then she just suddenly turned on me and went postal. Totally irrational. She must have borderline personality disorder, or similar.
Well, I don't mean to come on here and whine and lament, but it was a reminder how dangerous so many women are, so I am just passing the reminder onto you guys. I really should never SMS with any of these girls and only use Signal, but I break that rule sometimes if I really want them. But it's all just Russian roulette and that doesn't take into account the other usual obvious dating risks, that I won't even go into.
But damn the pussy was really good on a couple of those dates. So I know... high risk, high potential reward. But I'm just saying be extra cautious, or at least when you feel it is warranted. And I am clearly talking to myself here, more than to the rest of you.
Wouldn't Google Voice give you sufficient protection, without the downsides of Signal? I really like it. It works on my burner, and I can access the account via browser, so I never have to have the burner inside an office / residence. It is buried in my golf bag, or elsewhere.
Agreed, likely borderline.

Agreed, likely borderline.[/QUOTE]Google voice isn't truly anonymous. Google famously will link your "device fingerprint" to any account that's been on it, and will correlate "these 2 accounts are the same person" even though you give completely fake info on one. Even worse if you're using Android. All it would take is one subpoena to Google, whether an overzealous prosecutor or a crazy SB you knocked up and walked away from tracking you down for child support, and Google will instantly provide them all your info.
If you have a true burner device that NEVER uses the same wifi as your real phone, maybe you can escape being ID'd, but you'd have to be so careful, and the risk so high I wouldn't bother. All it would take is your burner device connecting to Google's servers one time on your wifi, and they'll immediately know who you are. This is the tech they use to advertise to you, and you may notice certain ads follow you even when you're on a burner device / account.
Tl;dr don't trust anything Google for privacy / illegal activities.

And this isn't hard to be careful at all. Just don't turn on WiFi. BTW, no one should have WiFi on on their IRL phone when they are mongering. The attempts the phone makes to connect to local WiFi signals get logged (on Google at least. So I have read on this site).
I don't think your paranoia is well placed. Yes, I am sure Google could easily figure out that my burner account is me. I have *never* seen this show up IRL, however. And my job has google as the contractor for server services, etc. No, I don't get ads from Google on my burner that have to do w / my IRL account.

I've never heard of it, and I'd wager you can't provide an example.

Agreed, likely borderline.[/QUOTE]Google voice messages are not end to end encrypted, and also Google is notoriously terrible for privacy. All those messages are easily accessible, and all vacuumed up by the gov't. And likely your cellular provider also has easy access. They aren't private or even remotely close.
"Yes, Google Voice texts are encrypted during transit between your device and Google's servers using TLS, and are also encrypted when stored (at-rest). However, these are not end-to-end encrypted messages, as a message can be unencrypted once it leaves Google's texting gateway and travels through the standard, unencrypted SMS network to the recipient. ".
So if you ever share any pics or personally identifiable conversational info via SMS, google voice, mysudo, etc, then it's out there. Also your Google Voice acct is likely easily connected with your phone, which is likely connected with you. Ok, if you bought a burner phone with cash, and stored it in a faraday bag...and never switched it on, near home, then could help, but that isn't very practical to stay in touch with others. And why do all this when Signal works just fine...and install it on a burner phone if you want, but I don't even bother with that part myself.
What are the downsides of Signal? I'm not aware of any of them, besides many dumb girls refuse to use it. But that's not a downside of the app or technology itself. You don't have to give out your # with it and you can even register it with a different # than your main cell. It is just so solid and can also enable disappearing messages after a certain period of time. (I usually set for 4 weeks with these girls).

I don't think your paranoia is well placed. [/QUOTE]Being smart and rational, and not taking unnecessary risks is not "paranoia."
Being lazy and careless and reckless is not a strategy I would recommend.
But it all comes down to personal decision about cost/benefit, risk/reward.
I would never say someone is "wrong" to discuss terms of an arrangement over SMS, just like I wouldn't say someone is wrong to BBFS some girl from the site. But also there is a much bigger downside (in lost pleasure) to using a condom, rather than the non existent downside of using Signal for texting. That's the part I don't get.
Well, I do lose a good number of sb prospects from insisting they communicate via Signal, so that is the real downside. However, the recent two deranged psychobitches have made me even more comfortable with my decisions here.

A SB figuring out my IRL identity and trying to parlay that into a score, or my SO figuring out what I have been up to. Those are the real risks in this game. And as I siad, the other indicators mentioned by the OP, I've never seen any of that. Even when I have potential for my sugar life crossing over to my real life, because of google being involved in my work world. Yes, I am careful. I use a VPN into the large corporate server too.
I never discuss an arrangement by text, not because of any OpSec concern, but because I think it is to my advantage to do it face to face. I also am fanatic about covered sex. I am a cautious person generally. I just don't see some of these other precautions as rational, because, as I said, I have never heard or seen of someone getting bit by not doing them.
Please relate an instance where someone was 'outed' when using Google Voice. Yes IK Google is terrible for consumers, and knowing that keeps me wary.
I used to work for google before and google voice is safe. The verification number that you use during signup can be removed and you can still use the gvoice as text only. You can repeat the process and can have multiple GVoice numbers.

[QUOTE=AtlPrince;7410806]I used to work for google before and google voice is safe.[/QUOTE]Talking loud and saying nothing. It's "safe" in what respect(s)? What kind of attacks does it it protect you from?
Your messages via Google Voice are all vacuumed up by the NSA, and Google is certainly happy to give all your texting history to any law enforcement agency that requests it.
(And again, I never said using SMS or Google voice is crazy or "wrong". I'm not such a simpleton as to think that way. But just be aware of the actual risks and then everyone can decide for themselves).

And if you aren't discussing $$$ over chats, then that lowers the risk tremendously, with no paper trail there. (As long as you don't use Venmo or Zelle for ppm...cash only, of course)
As far as an instance with someone being outed using Google Voice, I doubt that would be front page news on CNN. "Google Voice Outs Monger". But there are news stories every day about someone's texts being used against them in a criminal prosecution, or similar. That's not going to happen with Signal, especially with disappearing messages on. And again, there's no real downside to using it, at least if the girl agrees to move the conversation there.
Unless its a high profile murder case or a serious offense, Google doesn't comply with law enforcement, specially if its related to dealing with girls LOL.

Half of this thread gets taken up by security-related stuff like buying gift cards and fake phone numbers and what have you. Can we move that to it's own separate thread and keep this one just about the girls, please?
