* From an unlocked phone with physical access, at that point it's game over anyway, just open the app and make screenshots of all the messages, no special tools needed.

Another idiotic article... this is recycled news from a few months ago: https://signal.org/blog/cellebrite-and-clickbait/

Expect to see the anti-Signal fear porn spike up more and more by the propagandist wing of the "government". Signal is becoming extremely popular, so is ProtonMail.

(((Telegram)))

Start calling into question everyone who posts (((t.me))) links.

The app is jewish though and through.

Telegram is engineered for man in the middle. They actively monitor content.

Signal was indirectly developed by three letters. The CIA directly endorsed and promoted it through CIA asset Snowden. MSM constantly mentions signal as the preferred communications tool. Duh, at the implications.

You should think of Signal as providing ISP privacy. That's it.

There is no popular communication security software intended to keep you safe from the state. Anyone telling you otherwise is not trustworthy.

Now there are some open source options other than signal but they have their own issues and degree of security is unknown or questionable.

Your keyboard you're typing into gave you away before it made it through the app.

The best thing signal is for is that incoming messages probably won't get parsed for ads

they can intercept any message, but unfortunately are too stupid to understand

only low iq retards that have failed in life and cannot contribute to society are considered to be included in their team

All manners of surveillance oughta be stopped, period. I mean if the FBI is a good enough organization, they would not need to read people’s messages. That’s not respectful and if you have to violate the boundaries of autonomy and respect to do your job, then you don’t have legitimacy to begin with and it’s like not doing your job at all, thus no better than what criminal scum do.

Godspeed.

The FBI are the criminals. They do whatever they want.

... Now that the article mentions it, Signal definitely needs a feature (or at least make it a lot more visible)- a button that encrypts/password protects its message contents on the phone. Signal's focus seems to be encryption during transit which is great, but should put a greater focus on security on the physical security end of it.

All iPhone and android devices are compromised. Everything from the virtual keyboard to DNS monitoring is designed to spy on you.

It already does if you set a passphrase.

Pro tip: The article talks about a specific device-state in which Apple devices are vulnerable. It doesn't mention Android devices. Depending on the specific device, that's probably an indication that Android devices are generally always vulnerable.

The headline and main premise of this article is deeply flawed, to the point of being suspicious.

Signal’s encrypted messages can be intercepted from iPhone devices when those Apple devices are in a mode called “partial AFU,” which means “after first unlock.”

So what they are saying here is a direct contradiction to the assertions that Signal has either a design flaw or a back door... It is not Signal that is vulnerable but rather Apple iOS that is vulnerable. The app has to decrypt the messages in order to display them to the user and apparently the FBI can intercept the clear text at the OS level somewhere between the app and the display screen.
