Which users? The ones making the choice, or the ones that the ones making the choice are talking to? I also don't believe that turning data over "for future use according to ever-shifting ToS" can be counted as "fully informed" but that's another thing

Signal is open source so our code is regularly scrutinized in addition to regular formal audits. We constantly monitor [email protected] for any new reports & act on them quickly while working to protect the people who rely on us from outside threats like phishing with warnings and safeguards. 7/

The memo used the term ‘vulnerability’ in relation to Signal—but it had nothing to do with Signal’s core tech. It was warning against phishing scams targeting Signal users. 3/

One piece of misinfo we need to address is the claim that there are ‘vulnerabilities’ in Signal. This isn’t accurate. Reporting on a Pentagon advisory memo appears to be at the heart of the misunderstanding: npr.org/2025/03/25/n.... 2/
