We recently shared an update on the evolution of CC signals. In our newest blog post, we share several high-impact interventions we are advancing as part of the CC signals framework to restore trust, strengthen participation, and embed public interest values into the AI knowledge ecosystem.

Qua un riepilogo di tutto quello che è successo lungo il percorso.

To help protect Signal users from phishing and social engineering attacks, we’ve introduced additional confirmations and educational messaging in the app to help people better detect fraudulent profiles, especially message requests from scammers posing as Signal.

More changes are on the way.
