Mike Waltz needs to find a new app.
This should give pause to thought for all those promoting Firefox forks too.

What do FF forks have anything to do with that?
Risk of forks of a FOSS project that turn out to have added a vulnerability I think is the point.
The problem here is not the fork itself tho, and it rarely is. The very obvious and openly communicated issue is the complete undermining of E2EE and sending everything to a single entity. Of course, very niche forks may have too few eyes on them to detect malicious changes, but that just isn’t at all the current situation with the Signal fork.
I’d argue security through obscurity was gone by 2000, for anything that can be pinged.
Was the Signal fork FOSS?
Just don’t even use encryption at that point

Archiving communications is not optional (yet).
Why the fuck are you cloning signal you idiot fucks?
Interesting. Government record keeping rules require logging of many things. Normal Signal probably would not comply. This might.
At what point has this admin given a damn about rules?
Mike Waltz was actually one of the more professional of the by in large clown show. He may have cared.
NIH syndrome is incurable:)
Not related to the OP’s post,
But are you using FUTO’s keyboard? I thought that because everytime someone tries to add ASCII smiley emoji FUTO removes space between colon and the last word.
No, default Android screen keyboard. It does strange things while trying to “help” too.
But it’s still a little better than Hilka Clinton’s under-bed email server, or Hunter Biden’s macpuke with pictures of his hookers that he just dumped in the middle of nowhere. Anyway, there’s always been strife, which suggests that it’s probably not accidental.
