The ECJ #Pfizergate decision on text messages between Commission's von der Leyen and Pfizer's Bourla bears a lot of similarities to Trump cabinet's #Signalgate. Not that UvdL invited a journalist to a group chat, but that high stakes political discussions have no place over disappearing messages.

For everybody who's been hoping Anonymous will hack #ICE: they are apparently on the case. GlobalX, the airline they contracted for their illegal human trafficking, has confirmed the hack that was first reported a few days ago.

These fascists are ass clowns. They don't do anything securely, as we know especially from #SignalGate. Anonymous probably has an open goal to bring them to accountability.

Gee, too bad, isn't it?

From my understanding of this settlement I think the Houthis had already effectively offered this deal to Biden and Trump.

Trump took office during a ceasefire in Gaza, during which time Yemen promised no new aggression in the Red Sea towards commercial ships.

Trump arbitrarily upped the tension with the signal gate bombings, meanwhile Israel broke the Gaza deal.

So this just rewinds the clock. Yemen says they will keep bombing Israel directly over the Gaza genocide 🇾🇪🇵🇸✊🏿🖤🔻

Phase 5: Wir finden heraus, dass #TeleMessage Zugriff auf den Klartext aller geheimen Nachrichten hatte.

"TM Signal's archiving feature appears to fundamentally undermine Signal's flagship security guarantees, sending messages between the app and a user's message archive without end-to-end encryption, thus making users' communications accessible to TeleMessage."

Naturally, the #Trump Adm. wasn't just using regular ol' #Signal for their #classified chats—they were using a purposely-backdoored version of Signal from a shady Israeli outfit that probably compromised their messages long before they invited the Atlantic editor in by mistake.

I keep forgetting how absolutely fucking stupid these people really are.

They have set the bar for competence so low it's a tripping hazard in hell.

micahflee · TM SGNL, the obscure unofficial Signal app Mike Waltz uses to text with Trump officialsYesterday, a Reuters photographer captured a photo of the freshly-ousted former National Security Advisor Mike Waltz checking his Signal messages during a Trump cabinet meeting. If you're not familiar with Waltz, he's most well known for inviting The Atlantic's editor-in-chief to secret Trump administration war crimes Signal group. They discussed,

So look like TeleMessage has stopped their services (at least for now).
However this is going to be interesting problem to solve for all signal & other IM users. There could be other tools/apps that can come up (either cloning and adding functionality to the signal client itself or as a third party app running on the end points -- accessing the signal message data store-- ) performing similar things, like archiving chat contents and siphoning them off to remote systems...
The only way look like is to make sure that every end point is secure and safe, which is going to be herculean task.
