Apple, Google, Meta: Too Confident in Their Apps?

FBI Urges iPhone, Android Users to Ditch WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Signal—Before It’s Too Late

In 2023, hackers linked to China used WhatsApp to transmit stolen information from U.S. high-tech companies.
Similarly, terrorist groups have reportedly used Signal to plan large-scale attacks.
FBI Director Christopher Wray emphasized the challenge end-to-end encryption poses for authorities:

“The public should not have to choose between safe data and safe communities. We should be able to have both—and we can have both… Collecting evidence is becoming harder, because so much of that evidence now lives in the digital realm. Terrorists, hackers, child predators, and more are taking advantage of end-to-end encryption to conceal their communications and illegal activities from us.”

So much for Signal being touted a while back as one of the safest platforms
There was even discussion about it being a place to connect & exchange information even if other platforms went down

What tooooo remember .. not joking ... FaceBook's original name was Lifelog ... it was created by the CIA ..... A lawsuit occurred thus the name change .. How to get you to publicly expose yourself ... and for them to spy on you ... Friends, family, location, location, location .. jobs, education, .... PICTURES OF YOUR FAMILY ... NOTHING IS FOR FREE... NOTHING ...

Yes, I was suspicious of FB a *long* time ago, & as it turned out for some good reasons!

I found out that DARPA had developed something called Lifelog, & when it disappeared FB appeared at the same time

Presto change-o!

Several people have tried to persuade me to have an account there & I just say, no thanks lol
