“Jack Dorsey is on the board of Signal. Nuff said.”
No, he is not. That is disinformation. Please cite your source.
This took me 15 seconds:
“Signal is developed by Signal Messenger LLC, whose parent organization is the Signal Technology Foundation. They’ve just recently tweeted:
We are a 501c3 nonprofit. We’re not tied to any major tech companies, and we can never be acquired by one either. Development is supported by grants and donations from Signal users.
They are not associated with Twitter or Jack Dorsey in any way. Currently, the Signal Foundation’s board consists of only three people: Brian Acton (who left WhatsApp/Facebook in 2017), Moxie Marlinspike, and Meredith Whittaker.
As for the question of trust:
Signal conversations are always end-to-end encrypted, which means that they can only be read or heard by your intended recipients. Privacy isn’t an optional mode — it’s just the way that Signal works. Every message, every call, every time. You can confirm that the server is operating correctly and that you are communicating with the right person using safety numbers.
The complete source code for the Signal clients and the Signal server is available on GitHub. This enables interested parties to examine the code for security and correctness.”

That you for confirming my suspicion that this is deep state information.
Moxie Marlinspike is the Twitter plant. Look it up. He’s the eyes and ears of Dorsey.
Dorsey endorsed Signal to those attending the January 6 rally on the Mall. Look it up.
This business about Dorsey was discussed here on FR and other forums 3 weeks back. Signal’s duplicity is not news. It’s been known for years.
This is actually the most important thing about Signal. You should never use cryptography apps that are closed source. If you can't read the source, it can't be trusted.
