We as a community must stop recommending Signal. For far too long we have blindly followed this app without a second thought. It has created a cult of followers, when there are much better apps out there for us to use.
https://archive.is/Lhe24 archive for the essay
This essay was posted to r/Privacy and subsequently removed and censored for literally No Reason. This is honestly really scary: https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/wj5svi/signal_messenger_revealed_to_have_cia_ties_funded/ https://archive.ph/FZr1d
I am seriously hoping we can have a discussion about this on lemmy. @TheAnonymouseJoker , I know you from r/PrivateLife, and thought you’d be the one to go to about this. Thanks for being open in the past and not bowing to the inner circle of reddit cringelords.
I also am preparing an essay of my own about a complicit honeypot-ish web going on between Signal, Skiff, r/Privacy, r/PrivacyGuides, etc. They have a crazy little cabal that is very creepy. Any materials are welcome. Every time i turn over a stone i find two more. More to come.
It’s up to you, but you gotta ask yourself. Do you want to use a messaging app that forces Google, phone numbers, and has ties to the CIA? No thanks! Also, anyone with access to your text messages can take over your Signal account. Including the Feds ofc
How does it force google? It’s about to implement usernames. Didn’t know the CIA stuff. Nah, they can’t they also need to have access to my unlocked phone in order to transfer messages.
Have you read about PRISIM?
Not sure, I think I heard it but forgot
