Add to that #CloudAct and then you know how @signalapp that rubs off #AWS not only can but will snitch on users because if they didn't #Trump (and #Biden befire him) would've unplugged them harder than #EncroChat got.
- In fact #Signal must be a sting operation amidst the fact that they'll make #ANØM aka. #OperationIronside aka. #OperationTrøjanShield look like a test run…
I'll be shouting #ToldYaSo and expect all those #Signal shills to apologize to me personally when the shit inevitably hits the fan!

@andnull@social.nouveau.community no, but they want to be ableto #snitch and #dox users. - Only #cops demand #ID or any *"#KYC" with #PII. - #PhoneNumbers are #PII and are at best merely pseudonymous, but trivially to link to a person. Good systems are #decentralized, #federated, #SelfHosting-capable, #OpenSource & #OpenStandard and offer *real #E2EE* (with #SelfCustody of all the keys!)… - See #XMPP+#OMEMO (i.e. @monocles@monocles.social / #monoclesChat & @gajim@fosstodon.org ) and #PGP/MIME (see @delta@chaos.social / #deltaChat and @thunderbird@mastodon.online )… Anything else is either a #HoneyPot or run by #UsefulIdiots that consider snitching on their customers as valid strategy. - Cuz we all know neither @Mer__edith@mastodon.world nor anyone else at @signalapp@mastodon.world is gonna [risk jail for their users](https://web.archive.org/web/20220112020000/https://twitter.com/thegrugq/status/1085614812581715968), and by the amount of users they have, it is a statistical inevitability that they would've had to do so already.
