[–] Cort@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago (1 child) I'm not gonna use Signal. It's just a honeypot for the CIA. No you're thinking of telegram. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] white_nrdy@programming.dev 8 points 8 months ago So there is actually disinfo about it being funded by the CIA. I had heard it was, and tbh didn't care too much. I figured they funded it because they used it and got value. It's well audited so I trust it. Only learned it's disinfo when I looked for a source to include in my original reply https://euvsdisinfo.eu/report/us-intelligences-services-control-the-signal-app/ permalink fedilink source parent
