Today, Gaughen deleted his original tweet about the zero-day vulnerability and posted an apology to his followers, saying that “the information he had been given earlier was false,” and there’s no zero-day on Signal relating to link previews.
And, yet, they still lead with the clickbait headline “denies existence”. Dickhead move.
There is an entire industry of shady companies who make tens of millions per by selling dogshit “secure comms” products to barely literate and computer illiterate LtCols and procurement officers in the US Government.
Those officers are close to retirement and by regurgitating big words they do not understand while still in their procurement positions, they can land a job at said company and receive some of those funds once they hit minimum retirement age and wait a year.
Signal is free and disruptive to those business models.
Ergo the misinformation campaign, the FUD, is well funded,
by people who have a lot to lose.
