In case you were wondering what kind of story would lead me to say "I'm going to need a moment to come up with something more printable than 'fuck no,'" it is this: https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/04/01/waltz-national-security-council-signal-gmail/
Waltz and staff used Gmail for government communications, officials say

Trump’s national security adviser is trying to manage his way out of a crisis. But new revelations about his team’s operational security are piling up in the inbox.

The Washington Post

@evacide I saw this story summarized elsewhere, and they pulled this quote specifically:

"'Unless you are using GPG, email is not end-to-end encrypted, and the contents of a message can be intercepted and read at many points, including on Google’s email servers,'"

("Ha ha, wow," I thought. "They really brought in the big guns for that response.")

@evacide "...Eva Galperin, director of cybersecurity for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, told the Post."

("Oh. Yeah, they really did." 😂)

Happy to see the media asking the right people for their takes! 🥰
