> And anyone familiar with the workings of governments and politicians would tell you the use of Signal/WhatsApp is pervasive throughout most of the world. Hold up, we're not talking about politicians sharing dirty jokes, planning campaign rallies, or messaging a staffer to pick up their dry-cleaning here. We're talking about a whole stack of problematic circumstances, where each detail makes it much rarer: 1. Using their personal phone for official business. 2. Engaged in a conspiracy to violate government record-keeping laws by deleting records of official business. 3. Where that official business involved classified information, the kind where soldiers are put in jail for leaking it. 4. Actively leak-bragging those classified details to coworkers with zero "need to know." 5. About regarding how their government is about to bomb an entire apartment building of civilians because they think one guy went inside.
