Yesterday, I published an analysis of what I could publicly find about TM SGNL, the obscure and unofficial Signal app used by Mike Waltz, and presumably also by Pete Hegseth, JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, and other fascists in Trump’s government. Afterwards, someone privately sent me the URL

The original git repo has a .il tld. Hmmm… I’m just gonna throw it out there, but an app created by foreign nationals might not be a good choice for top secret communication.
It is if the official is being payed to lure fellow officials into making big security mistakes. Anyone who knows a sociopath knows they would sell their mom for a candy bar.
If its open source and audited, it doesn’t matter.
Sure, but this is a very obscure project. It has few eyes holding it accountable.
The government is buying it. And cryptocurrency companies. That’s a lot of money and a lot of eyes.
Clearly not enough money and eyes, because it got hacked.
Yeah. That’s the story.
We need to ensure the government only uses open source tools and we need more funding for security audits.
It is if the person is a foreign asset.
