Does that mean that other apps like signal for example have back doors?

Do criminals have a knowledge of exploits in the recommended messaging apps?

    Yea and if a nation-state knows your phone number, they can track your exact whereabouts in real-time. Let’s not pretend like we know better than them about what information matters :)

      …yeah and if they went to signal to ask about you they’re going to provide signal your phone number as it’s the only identifier they have in their system…so the nation state already had that to begin with, it isn’t sensitive info despite what it can be used for.
