Been hearing a lot of FUD about Signal recently and have been wondering where it came from. Seems like it might be connected to this campaign.

Is there much evidence of an "intense campaign"?

I have seen https://twitter.com/matthew_d_green/status/1789690133765091532, but that doesn't quite rise to "intense campaign" levels for me. Also, it seems to me that the recent wave of people caring was triggered by the board of directors stuff, not anything Durov did?

(I do think that Signal is far more secure than Telegram and would recommend it. My impression is that Telegram continues to be successful at least within crypto because it has better degen-friendly features (group chats, emojis, sticker integrations...))

People that have been eavesdropped + their tie to intelligence agencies

Yeah, the story about Katherine Maher (Signal Foundation chair) being involved in US-backed regime change doesn't seem to be coming from Durov

I've also seen people bring up Signal users being eavesdropped, but I'd guess that's mostly vulnerabilities in the OS rather than Signal

I’ve posted this before journalists picked it up, and there’s more to the story. I don’t think it’s a OS problem
