    So it seems this is an iOS vulnerability rather than a Signal vulnerability, kind of.

      Yeah, signal doesn’t purport to do anything special to protect your messages on your device. If the device is somehow unlockable and your messages aren’t deleted, they are accessible. It’s a bad headline.

      This is like when Cellebrite claimed they could read Signal messages from a phone, pretending this was somehow notable. It’s FUD.
