Yep, totally agree. Just pointing out that the tech is not the enemy here, it’s the intent of the user(s). I’m a big fan of Signal, and they’ve done nothing wrong here, though to some the headline could imply that the tool is complicit here.

Depends on when you started using it, when you were served with a notice to retain, and whether you used Signal to discuss content that falls under said notice.

Either way, encryption and/or auto-delete isn’t the enemy here.

Presumably not, since the repurposed cells won’t have the same surface antigens that the immune system targets for destruction.
