Let me get this straight...

The default setting for Signal on an iPhone allows law enforcement to see the content of all incoming messages, even after the app has been deleted? 🤔

@wdormann @Viss It’s been a while since I installed Signal, but I have a vague memory that it may have reminded me to change that setting the first time I ran it.

@thomasareed @Viss
I don't believe you, as that setting (my screenshot) is within the Signal app itself.

As such, if they wanted a different default value, they would have just released the software with the preferred setting.

@wdormann @Viss Okay, whatever. “I don’t believe you” is a pretty rude response, as it implies I’m lying and that nothing changed in the years since I installed it. I do distinctly remember some kind of warning about Signal notifications from somewhere, though, so this is most definitely NOT new news.
