    questionable at this point

    They can be audit as they are open source. Its a bit academically dishonest to just say they are insecure and handing over chats when they are an open source project. I get there are so many things to test and review, but Signal is not going with the proprietary trust me bro.

    You know where else these communities will be? WhatsApp. Don’t make good be the enemy of perfect.

      well said, signal is by far the best secure messaging app out there.
      the only way they spied on this group must’ve been by stealing a phone from one of the activists… and then bad opsec by the activists who didn’t notice

      Edit: What the fuck is wrong with me? I was thinking of Telegram.

      So, speculation on the speculative part of my message as opposed to commentary about the actual point, huh? Cool, cool.

        No worries. I do wish Signal could be used without a number. I think my fellow lefties and anarchists forget that we go to war with the army we have not the one we want.
