I’m out of the loop. What happened?
USA government officials accidentally added a journalist into a private Signal group chat which they used to discuss war plans.
Surely there is eventually a level of stupid that we can agree is just stupid? This is it right here. There’s no plan. No 4D chess. No intentional leak. It’s just a bunch of idiots breaking the law, praying to God, ending lives, and then clapping themselves on the back and sending high five emojis.
Also the NSA called signal a security risk just one month ago saying it could be easily hacked. this could got Service members killed.
this could got Service members killed.
Don’t worry, only the “losers and suckers” would die.
A bunch of senior white house figures, including the defence secretary and the VP, added a journalist to a group message chat about military action in Yemen

He really knows how to open a girls heart
I wonder what messaging service they used.
Would this be good publicity or bad publicity for signal?
“Even government officials think we’re secure!”
Or
“Idiots actually think signal is secure for classified information”
Signal is very secure, but your encryption doesn’t matter when you add unknown people to your encrypted chats.
It’s like buying the most secure, unpickable door lock and giving the key with the address on it to a complete stranger
Just wanna be clear that this didn’t happen because of some technical flaw/vulnerability in Signal. This was completely Human Error
Signal also features auto-delete for messages. They chose not to communicate through secure channels, and are actively trying to keep their shit out of the permanent record. These fucks are actively evading paper trails and transcripts because they know full-well how indefensible their crimes are.
