    Click bait. The report is really grasping at straws. It’s like saying any company that uses AWS servers is linked to the Israel government.

        1. Has secretly visited Israel multiple times despite claiming otherwise, with one of the trips followed by Israel unblocking the app.

            The Carlson interview was conducted in English, which Durov spoke pretty fluently.

        Signal’s security model is indeed robust - their E2E protocol is open source, independently audited, and uses perfect forward secrecy which telegram’s secret chats don’t implemnet properly.
