|

<p>Signal is a "private" instant messenger.</p>
|
||||
<h2 >Spyware level: <font style="color:yellow;">MEDIUM</font></h2>
|
||||
<h2 >You need to give Signal your phone number to work</h1>
|
||||
<p>You cannot create an account in Signal without giving it your phone number.</p>
|
||||
<h3 >Signal is not completly Peer-To-Peer</h1>
|
||||
<p>Signal claims to be a Peer-To-Peer messenger. But this is not true because Signal stores <strong>your phone number</strong> in the servers.<a href="#fn1" class="footnote-ref" ><sup>1</sup></a></p>
|
||||
<h1>Signal has the decryption keys of their messages</h1>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The Signal legal terms<sup>3</sup> claims they have the
|
||||
decryption keys:<br/>
|
||||
<i>
|
||||
"Additional technical information is stored on our servers,
|
||||
including randomly generated authentication tokens, keys, push
|
||||
tokens, and other material that is necessary to establish
|
||||
calls and transmit messages. Signal limits this additional
|
||||
technical information to the minimum required to operate the
|
||||
Services."
|
||||
</i>
|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
It also says it would give info to the government and law
|
||||
enforcement agencies:<br/>
|
||||
<i>
|
||||
Third Parties. We work with third parties to provide some of our
|
||||
Services. For example, our Third-Party Providers send a
|
||||
verification code to your phone number when you register for our
|
||||
Services. These providers are bound by their Privacy Policies to
|
||||
safeguard that information. If you use other Third-Party
|
||||
Services like YouTube, Spotify, Giphy, etc. in connection with
|
||||
our Services, their Terms and Privacy Policies govern your use
|
||||
of those services.
|
||||
</i>
|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
Please note the "Services like youtube, spotify, giphy". Those
|
||||
sites are in the Signal source code<sup>4</sup>, so they can spy
|
||||
on you.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, we have this:<br/>
|
||||
<i>
|
||||
Other instances where Signal may need to share your data
|
||||
|
||||
To meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
|
||||
To enforce applicable Terms, including investigation of potential violations.
|
||||
To detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues.
|
||||
To protect against harm to the rights, property, or safety of Signal, our users, or the public as required or permitted by law.
