Signal provides:
- Excellent protection against third party interception of communications (wiretapping).
- Limited protection against compromised (hacked) or lost devices
- No protection against certain common usage mistakes (accidentally including a reporter in your large group war planning chat).
@mattblaze my fam straight up refused to abandon Whatsapp.
Reason: meh… it’s just easier
My anti-facist rants are falling on complacent ears. So I’m blissfully out of the loop on family discussions and photos. 🤷🏻♂️
@mattblaze My sibling did mention a random news article about some RCMP officers getting caught sharing inappropriate material on Signal…but were on a shared network. Thus, Signal must be bad.
I have no doubt there’s active attempts by Meta Inc. (and probably lobbyists) posting misleading and misinformation about Signal and Fediverse alternatives.
Evil people were using landline phones, telegrams, and letters for evil purposes before.
