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? 🤔

Can we get a comment on this?

1) The default Signal setting to show message contents in push notifications seems... bad, assuming this article is accurate.
2) Does changing the in-Signal-app setting for Notification Content indeed prevent notifications from being stored anywhere, which by default contains incoming message bodies.

On the macOS side of things, we have confirmation that Signal notification contents get stored, even for disappearing messages

iOS sadly offers less visibility into what's going on. But the FBI probably appreciates that it's happening there too.

The default notification setting for Signal (on both iOS and macOS) ensures that potentially sensitive information leaks out of the Signal app. This is unfortunate.
