Signal is open source, so our code is regularly scrutinized in addition to regular formal audits. We also constantly monitor [email protected] for any new reports, and we act on them with quickness while also working to protect the people who rely on us from outside threats like phishing with warnings and safeguards.

This is why Signal remains the gold standard for private, secure communications. 5/

@kkarhan Signal is literally open-source, meaning its source code is public, not proprietary: https://github.com/signalapp. Signal does not hold any user's secret keys.

Signal has 126 repositories available. Follow their code on GitHub.

@kkarhan @taylan You could have simply clicked on the link to find out that Signal have published the source code of all their apps and of their server, instead of making false claims out of thin air.

There's literally an entire manual on reproducing builds: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/blob/main/reproducible-builds%2FREADME.md

Also, nothing and no one stops you from self-hosting the Signal server.

I did not claim Signal isn't centralised. I did not claim it's possible to verify which software runs on a foreign server.

Unlike you, I substantiated my statements by citing a source – namely a link pointing to Signal's collection of Git repos which contain the source code of their client & server software and a manual explaining how to reproduce Signal's builds, which you continue to ignore.

The one making claims without stating any sources at all are you.

thus subject to Cloud Act

They literally don't store anything about you, other than the phone number you used to sign up, and the timestamp of the last login. They can't fulfill any kind of subpoena, because they simply don't have the data. This was proven in court:

I don't know what your mission is, any why you're constantly spreading misinformation about a secure communications platform, trying to discourage people from using it, without naming alternatives.
It's pretty suspicious at the very least.

Signal still knows nothing about you, but inexplicably the government continues to ask.
