People are over-reading this. The judge dismissed the *federal* murder charges because his (alleged) actions didn’t fit within federal law. He still faces *state* murder charges because it’s usually a state crime. The feds stepped in because they were mad NY doesn’t have the death penalty.

End-to-end encryption means whatever you're sending is not readable BETWEEN the ends.
If you own an endpoint, you can read it.
That is how the FBI has historically gotten data from Signal chats.
There's no magic. You just go where the plaintext is.
Please stop believing vague scares about this.

I think that's the biggest mistake they made, really, was making life so fleeting that the dice roll math works out for many that well, it might as well go towards defending my neighbor than some completely predictable and regulatable nightclub fire, or mass shooting, or plane crash from overwork

I'm sorry I can't stop thinking "all democrats know how to do is fund police, do means test and lie" on repeat now
Unfortunately Democrats only know how to give cops more money, technology, and staffing. They only have one button to press and they’re making a very concerned face as they press it

What you need to hear is this: Signal has, for a LONG time now, conformed to the security-critical norms of the cryptography field. It has followed best practices. It has publicly opened itself for scrutiny, and has held up well to it.

Oh look, it's another resistance grifter account spreading misinformation about Signal to block.
My professional opinion, as a cybersecurity professional who consults on the matter with sensitive organizations: Signal remains the best messenger for most people and organizations, including those.
