I don’t know anything about WhatsApp really but good luck with a properly configured Signal account.
Just wait long enough and you could get put into some random US goverment signal threads.
Thank God my life is so incredibly boring and my conversations so uninteresting
USA govt: yeah, let’s not talk about this topic.
How did they confirm them? They saw the Russians spying while they were inside the system spying on it.
Good thing the FBI report from 5 years ago showed signal has nothing to turn over, so good luck with that.
it happened to my neighbor:
they hacked his account and sent a message to every contact to ask for money/asking to click some link which is phishing for bank or other way to steal money.
it have higher success rate because you know the sender and because the attacker talk to you usiing your name since they stealed that from his contact info.
but also a lower success rate because the neighbor don’t randomly talk about some dance competition.
it was big enough that when you login to bank account they show you a popup about fake dance competition and inform you that is a scam.
italy here
And before this confirmation nobody could guess Russian state hackers would ever do such attempts 😁
The year is early, but this could be the annual biggest nothingburger headline
Great, they Will prove our government is useless
They already have access to any chats on Telegram.
What do they want to see? How I talk to my friends what absolute idiots the russians are and that Putin sucks dicks? They are welcome to read all that! 😀
Ah makes sense. This graphic made me think that anonymous might rear it’s well hidden head. But…..nah.
Matrix ftw
I don’t know what chat app to even use anymore …
I always say… you can have the most secure device there is, but in the hands of an idiot it will be social engineered anyway.
Hack in!! Hegseth will just ad Russians to the group.
And ..you think this is something new?
They don’t want to pay Meta for it, I guess.
Russian sociopathy needs to be studied.
