Headline is misleading - the article is about getting messages off a (booted and previously unlocked) device, not in transit (as "intercept" would imply). Still bad, obviously -- I'm guessing this is an iOS zero day -- but not as bad as the headline would imply.
Also, the article claims that Signal has "deep state ties" (and that this is therefore possibly an intentional backdoor in Signal) and users should use Telegram (which doesn't do E2E by default!) instead.
