It's not obvious to me. If FB's claims turn out to be true, then it will look very bad for Signal — that they staged evidence to create a fake story about FB, and went on record to double-down on their dishonesty.

Yes but do you honestly believe Facebook over Signal? Facebook literally lied to Congress... Signal is about transparency. I seriously doubt Signal lied. They have no incentive to lie here, if the ad would have run they would have won, it didn't they're winning. It's a win-win for them.

  It is possible that neither of them are lying and that Signal just misinterpreted what the Facebook ad system was telling them and jumped the gun a bit.

    This honestly seems most likely to me. It does mean that Facebook’s messaging is confusing enough to cause that though.

    Or they "misinterpreted". Plausible deniability enables this win-win scenarion.

  Problem is that the images Signal have provided don't really provide much concrete evidence that the ads were rejected after infact being run.

  So far even the screenshots Signal posted contradict and disapprove Signal's story, and are in line with what facebook is saying.
