FBI Director Kash Patel said Monday that he had opened an investigation into the Signal group text chats that Minnesota residents are using to share information about federal immigration agents’ movements, launching a new front in the Trump administration’s conflict there with potential free speech implications.
Patel said in an interview with conservative podcaster Benny Johnson that he wanted to know whether any Minnesota residents had put federal agents “in harm’s way” with activities such as sharing agents’ license plate numbers and locations.
Good luck trying to decrypt the texts
Don’t need to decrypt anything if someone gets caught with an easy phone unlock or flips. End to end means end to end. With the size of some of the groups and potential to infiltrate, I would assume that the comms are already compromised to one degree or another. If you get one of the ends, encryption means nothing. I bet kash’s FBI just doesn’t know who has it yet.
True. And your last point is notable. This leadership is ruthless but dumb as fuck.
Signal is secure. The issue here is this was a public group chat that some assholes joined.

Its already been infiltrated. Been having people harassing us all week. Some bootlicker on Twitter found the names of all the dispatchers in one of the rapid reaponse groups and submitted it to the FBI.
Fuck that shit
The metadata alone can give them plenty
