    These boomers think Signal is safe because they use the word encrypted.

    Can we please vote these clowns out and get some adults back in government?

      Signal is pretty safe. They exploited a specific phishing vector and forged group chat invite links that also send conversation data to their own linked devices.

      AFAICT this was a phishing attack, not an attack on Signal.

      Disclaimer: I’m not endorsing the use of Signal for government information, which is supposed to be kept for the record.
