 Signal isn't broke. Much more likely his phone was hacked or the otjer person on the line was weak. But yes, if the devil is on on your tail then there is practically no way to shake them. 

Fortunately they don't give a shit about 99% of us as not everyone is planning on having a coffee with Putin next week so every needs to relax a little. 
 Until they come for you.. Then you get pissed? Someone ought to go to jail for this. 
 
 Relax? Like with webp? Like with the latest GPU vulnerability? We're too relaxed apparently.  
 Maybe aim that comment at the known iphone lover NVK. I'm fully FOSS (as much as can be) across all machines. Apart from living in a cave, there isn't much more I can do to keep my head beneath the parapet so i'll keep chillin. Yes this can be seen as in contrast to "the price of freedom is constant vigilance" and while my eyes are fully wide open I try not to let the fear grip me on the daily. That's exactly what the old power structures want.  
 Fearlessness is really good. But we're aspiring to definitive solutions here, aside from the emotional aspect. 
Also, "iphone lover"? didn't know that 🤭  
 NVK has form form for repeated "linux is a shitcoin" and openly a macbook whore. Hates CalyxOS and Graphine and is constantly shitting on people who use them with posts such as the above touting "well you're all fucked anyway, might as well stick within the Walled Apple Garden".
