    Wow, this is straight-up fraud. Goes to show that nobody should trust extraordinary claims from closed-source developers.

      Yes, this isn’t your average “junior engineer introduces minor bug, exposes volnerability” type of problem, this is very clearly “we know very well this is terrible but we’re selling it using a bunch of buzzwords, so we couldn’t care less”…

      Sadly there aren’t a lot of meaningful legal mechanisms to sue these types of scams

    Quite frankly, their threats of legal action for a very responsible disclosure and post-mortem for future reference tells you all you need to know, they don’t give two shits about privacy/security

      Are you asking who believes that signal is the gold standard? Other encrypted chat services implement “the signal protocol” now, so… if not gold, it’s at least standard.
