I'm curious how using Signal in this way is any different from talking in person. Nobody considers a private conversation during a walk in the park to be destroying evidence just because it wasn't recorded.
- banish-m4 3y agoSignal can leave metadata (phone numbers) behind whereas talking in person doesn't usually unless some comms were used to suggest it, security footage, or cell phone pings were to allude it. I'm wondering if evidence of a conversation occurring can be used in a legal context as circumstantial evidence or to suggest suspicion or intrigue.
- ameister14 3y agoBecause when using signal it was recorded, just deleted after two weeks.
- ranger_danger 3y agoWhere do you draw the line at "recorded"... is a 5-second disappearing message still "recorded" ?
- ameister14 3y ago>is a 5-second disappearing message still "recorded" Yes. What's the difference, functionally? Ignore the time limitation, what is the command being given, in the end?
