I have a government-issued iPhone. It has Signal on it, and I have access to the appstore. It’s also not allowed to be used for anything but unclassified communication and isn’t permitted inside restricted areas.

Twitler.

Let’s also be clear: Signal, regardless of their encryption standards, is not an approved system for any kind of classified information. Leaks of this nature have the potential to cost people’s lives. Every single person in that group chat would have known this. Many of them have original classification authority.

Further, not only was the platform not approved for the information, the messages were set to disappear after some time. This is a violation of government record keeping laws and FOIA standards. This wasn’t an oopsie.

That’s Jenny.
