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

    @signalapp The problem with Signal is that it doesn't use any of the contacts... Unfortunately, this is impossible.

    @_spiriituaL @signalapp Its been happening for the longest now But it’s goes well when using other country number Didn’t know if they have problem with Nigeria

    @signalapp You seem to be experiencing an outage

  • SAP127001
    S.A.P (@SAP127001) reported

    Why providing your number to a messaging service @signalapp makes no sense: 1. Why do they need it? They don’t. 2. Why do they ask for it? To track you. 3. Why do effective E2E encrypted zero knowledge messengers not ask you for it? They don’t need it.

    @signalapp signal view once on iOS is useless since it allows receipt to take screenshots. Fix it plz.

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

    @signalapp Having issues to reregister on #iPhone. Always shows 'something-went-wrong.-try - after - sometime" message. :(

    @FareedZakaria @mer__edith @signalapp AI game is just beginning. It will reach Nash’s equilibrium when its exploitation will hurt not just the masses but also the corporations. It could happen because people have no money to buy stuff, or there are drastic errors in algorithms (AI is approximation). But it will.

    @Gold_Phishy @signalapp Unfortunately registration lock is not on by default. Probably because people have a hard time remembering their PIN, and Signal doesn't want you writing it down

    @SIGNAL_RETURN Why doesn’t @signalapp launch an email service?

  • DustinFinn
    Dustin (BusySignal-KE2EFX) (@DustinFinn) reported

    OMFG - these arm chair security people calling this recent issue where iOS notifications where preview messages were held - calling it a @signalapp issue are just making me nuts. It’s an #OpSec issue / if you’re concerned - security is not one app it’s an entire process.

    @MrAndyNgo @signalapp Criminals are going to go to jail these are federal crimes not state. Your dems cannot help you this time

    @YAJames10 @_spiriituaL @signalapp Signal is a free messaging app focused on privacy. It's used for secure text, voice/video calls, and file sharing with end-to-end encryption, making it popular for personal and professional communication where security matters. If you're facing login issues, try checking your internet or app updates.

    @_spiriituaL @signalapp It is a Nigeria problem sir, I use signal but I can’t open another account with any other number. They blocked Nigeria from using the app. @signalapp all Nigerians use your app!!!

  • Gold_Phishy
    Goldfish 🟠 (@Gold_Phishy) reported

    @bdmurdock @signalapp It does. As a security guy, I don't mind a few seconds to secure. I have however seen people putting in a lot of effort to get round our controls at work, for ease of use. I'll always try and have a chat and see what the actual issue is, and if we can do something.

    @TLDInvestors @signalapp Yup, sad to see but hopefully I can help some people avoid this fate

  • RealAndersonBen
    Ben has opinions. (@RealAndersonBen) reported

    @chriskalos_xyz @signalapp They still have servers. They just don't store unencrypted messages or encryption keys on them. Also, they are Amazon's servers that are down. Everything that uses AWS is affected.

  • Rainwashmee

    @signalapp In 1988, Iranians were silenced by guns. In 2022, by blackout. In 2025, will you help them be heard? #DigitalBlackOutIran #D2C4Iran

  • jolieangel2323
    angelina.jolie (@jolieangel2323) reported

    @signalapp Phishing exploits human error, not encryption. Always safeguard your PINs and codes, and use secure, privacy-first messaging tools to stay protected.
