Who do you Signal?
There's a lot to unpack in Micah Lee and 404 Media's reporting of the US Government's use of a hacked version of Signal in order to try and comply with message retention policies in government.
My main concern is that Signal doesn't appear to notify users if the person they're talking to is using one of these hacked versions of Signal.
To be clear, while I don't personally use Signal to hide my communications, there are plenty of people who might need to for varying reasons, and it's probably critical for them to know if any of their messages are being passed to clearly insecure backup servers.
