I read through it all and multiple times I thought I was going crazy due to the constant repeating of the same answers and muddying of the water. From how they responded I was already ready to believe they should lose their CA status but this right here cinched it for me:
> MsgSafe offered this app (with the malware SDK) to the public via the Google Play store as part of a public beta, where it was free for anyone to download up until earlier this year. MsgSafe publicized its mobile app on social media. As of this writing, MsgSafe's website still links to the Google Play store (though the app was removed earlier this year):
>> This is not correct. The MsgSafe.io beta app was actually a testing beta, which could not be accessed by anyone via the Google Play store. The only way the app was accessible was to our employees or via a unique social media link MsgSafe.io sent out over 3 years ago, and that link only worked for a limited time. Using that unique social media link, we can tell that less than 1/10th of 1% of MsgSafe.io's users would have had the opportunity to download to test the app, and the actual number that installed it was much lower. Also, your statement about the MsgSafe.io website still linking to the Google play store is completely false. Did you even check this before making this post? In the screen-shot you shared, the icon labeled "Download on Google Play" does not direct you to the Google play store, it directs you to https://www.msgsafe.io/android https://www.msgsafe.io/android which actually takes you to a 404 page on the MsgSafe.io website - it never leaves the MsgSafe.io website. Had you hovered over this link you would have seen this. Of course we're not proud of an outdated website and this should be updated, but that doesn’t make your false claim true.
