I'm curious to know what messaging platform did they used? Also, were they aware that any communication via the platform would be monitored?

- Bartweiss 10y agoThis was the question I wanted answered as soon as the article quoted specific texts. It's possible that these things weren't monitored, but were disclosed as part of the suit. Even so, I'm a bit surprised that an exchange like this was retained at all, rather than run through an encrypted texting app and the history regularly deleted. It's one of those stories where the existence of the records is at least as surprising as their contents.
- mwambua 10y agoYeah. I find it really interesting that people of their status would not take more precautions to ensure the privacy of their conversations.
- bigtones 10y agoThey uses SMS text messages, which were subpoenaed as part of the lawsuit, and disclosed as part of the suit filing with the Delaware court. Their communication was not monitored at the time.
