NSA warned of vulnerabilities in Signal app a month before Houthi strike chat
- anigbrowl 2y agoEveryone is focusing on the securiy angle, but to me the most egregious thing about having these conversations over Signal is the use of disappearing messages. Perhaps these conversations/minutes would need to be classified, but they should absolutely be recorded.

The pieces of the puzzle are not puzzling. The ideal next step would be a forensic device audit. Also, taking into consideration something as simple as UNC5792, what if the "guest" was bridged-in? iykwim
