    What security vulnerabilities does Signal have? I implore them to find a more secure messenger.

    Edit: Apparently they’re using Olvid. Claims to be the most secure messenger. Only the clients are open source, not the server code and they’re using a whole different algorithm. I seriously don’t understand why they don’t just partner with Signal, bet these guys don’t even have Signal’s level of quantum resistant encryption.

      Plot twist: maybe whatsapp, signal and telegram are harder to hack, maybe olvid has back doors that allows them snoop on each other 🤔

      (am only half joking 😉)

      I think that it has to do with GDPR. Signal has servers outside the jurisdiction of France or the EU. This app probably not.

      Not that I agree though. Signal would be a better option.
