That’s interesting. If you’re forking the Signal client to support archiving, you could also remove autoexpiration, the computer linking feature that is used when hijacking somebody’s account, and the ability to invite random people without clearance into your group chats. That would make it a reasonably secure and appropriate tool for communication over public infrastructure. We know they didn’t do at least one of these things.
without clearance
Then you’d need to employ some sort of KYU (know your user).
Oh no that’s worse. That means someone demanded they use signal and this is the best they could come up with given registrations that come with hierarchy
Is there evidence that this is actually a US government fork of Signal for archiving messages? Maybe they just downloaded some other Signal fork from somewhere else.
Looks like it’s made by a third party: https://www.telemessage.com/tag/tm-sgnl-android-installation-upgrade-guide/
Amazing. Is it a trojan?
