    So?

    Obviously it isn’t great when far right billionaires are talking in secret but this article seems like it is trying to blame Signal. With strong security and privacy tools you can do whatever you want. That’s good as it empowers people of all walls of life.

      Yeah idk why people are caught up on this. Encryption is good and absolutely fundamentally important to society. And yes, shitty people can use it too, it doesn’t make it bad.
