Exactly, Signal should be used for "official" things like scheduling lunch with colleagues. I don't think it's proper (and potentially illegal) to be planning the things they did on there. It's too easy to screw up which is why the public knows about it now; you're not able to easily invite third parties into a SCIF.
- tomjakubowski 2y agoScheduling lunch is a great example. It's the kind of low-grade information which would be marginally beneficial to adversaries (who might arrange to, say, bug a restaurant if they knew VIPs would be meeting there), so it's worth hiding, but it's not really of public interest so doesn't need to be recorded durably. And the downside of leaking impending lunch plans to a journalist, one time, by accident, is likely inconsequential compared to, say, leaking impending military attack plans to a journalist, one time, by accident.
