The encrypted messaging app Signal has stopped responding to requests from Ukrainian law enforcement regarding Russian cyberthreats, a Ukrainian official claimed, warning that the shift is aiding Moscow’s intelligence efforts.

    Did it ever respond to those “requests”? What would Signal have anyway other than phone number to login association.

          Technically they can also store what I said, but yes, in fact it appears they don’t.

            So apparently some people think Signal can’t see to which number they send that registration confirmation SMS.

            Humanity isn’t worth it, these apes are doomed.

          National security laws supercede the courts… If they called info on national security grounds, it would not be disclosed in court papers.

            If they secretly kept that info and didn’t release it, I guess that could be true. But do we have a reason to believe they’re keeping that info?

              a FISA court order can force them to collect what they can which would includr time stamps and who you are contacting.

              I don’t think signal logs it by default though, but jack shit they can do about national security laws since they are incorporated under US law.
