    @GuntherEagleman @US_Minitrue @signalapp needs to shut them out of the service. They’re engaged in illegal activity.

    @mer__edith @signalapp After repeated messages and emails to Signal support, over issues of Indonesian numbers unable to register for signal and receiving nothing but 🦗... Beginning to wonder if there isn't something more substantially sinister going on. What is being hidden and why? If its bug - say and give a fix it timeline. If it's soft censorship, say so (aka the Gov leaned on you). Otherwise it's beginning to sound suspicious.

    @JustNews_tg @signalapp Technology cannot fix human error. All the encryption in the world won't save you from yourself.

    @signalapp Is it just to remain connected while 80 million Iranians are silenced? Please help them, however you can. #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

    @signalapp @grok Why doesn't Signal use email login instead of number?

    @DrewHyatt8 @signalapp No way… The NSA would not have something this secure the algorithm cannot be broken no matter what… the guy who invented this form of encryption decided to make signal a foundation nonprofit… because it was better for the greater good of humanity than privatizing it… that’s how special it is And you know it’s true when entire governments can’t break the code… the only way they can get signals is by screenshots, but actually deciphering the encryption code. Nope, impossible for many reasons not even the NSA.

    @ritrixi @signalapp Its great for the login, but There was a decent argument for phone numbers, in order to gate the signups while still keeping it free. which made sense a while back. Passkeys still need a fallback & Users are sharing that fallback. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    @signalapp In Tehran right now, silence is deadly. Without internet, cries for help are muted. Please, use your influence to help break the silence. Iranians will remember who stood with them #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

    @signalapp Day 79. Silence is deadly. Iranians are being killed in the dark. Please, use your voice to help us be heard. #DigitalBlackOutIran #IranRevolution2026

    @signalapp This is literally as old as dial up. I may or may not have done it way back when AOL was a pay per hour service. Send out 3000 messages all at once and have chat log turned on. Account would get nuked in 5 min, go to the log and there would be five more accounts.

    Currently stuck in a Captcha loop nightmare on @signalapp because I created a new group chat with new contacts, whom I sent a DM to first before adding to the group. I tell myself it's OK as it means protection and security are working on Signal.... but HELP. 💀🛡

    Maximus Curious (@StatsMaxer) reported

    @theonejvo @signalapp credential stuffing wins when scale exceeds patch speed. hundreds exposed in 24h means the cost to harden is now baked into real ops. signalapps free tier model inverts incentives. they won't fix until shutdown forces it.

    @mert @signalapp If you can't solve the problem of federation with as much metadata protection as Signal (this is the challenge), and have a solid plan to rapidly reach feature parity with as much vetting and audits as Signal, it's not worth it.

    @signalapp Iran's government is silencing its people by cutting off the internet, hiding atrocities from the world. You have the power to help. Will you stand with us, or betray our trust by staying silent? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran
