I'm more surprised by the subtle implication everyone makes that there's no backdoors in Signal. That would be weird assumption to make.

- OutOfHere 2y agoThe main "backdoor" to Signal is that having access to the phone can leak all of Signal's data. If the phone OS is backdoored, then Signal is already compromised. Anyway, the point is not to make it impossible to exfiltrate data, but to make it as hard as possible.
- willywanker 2y agoThat isn't a Signal exclusive flaw. If the phone OS is backdoored, everything on it is compromised.
