You can read it here, in the DOD library. https://dodcio.defense.gov/Portals/0...MobileApps.pdf
Hope you guys aren’t sharing the state secrets over there on signal. Switch to X as I hear the Doge-bags have authorized that for high-side discussions.
I’ve seen junior officers and enlisted loose thier clearances, or even be separated for supid errors of omission with classified materials. Yet these clowns couldn’t be bothered to use the systems and controls that we taxpayers have spent likely billions putting in place to protect the nations secrets…from idiots like them screwing up. For F sake, almost all of them were likely within 50 yds of a SCIF. One of them, however, was in Russia while chatting about targets, TOTs, push times, etc. The team of Russian spooks assigned to monitor and eavesdrop on his every second probably laughed their asses off.
These clowns should be held accountable, but won’t be because politicians in general, and this administration specifically has an arrogant disregard for this stuff. They make a mockery of a process that everyone else is held very, very accountable to. You or I would be fired, or jailed even. Seriously, I would hope you aren’t using signal or other unapproved apps to handle classified materials and discussions. |
See previous post of mine...
Whatsapp was written by a Ukrainian in the US (banned for use on military devices)
Telegram was written by Russia (banned for use on military devices)
Signal was written by an American developer (most likely an intelligence company OGA) and is allowed on military phones.
So that you understand all government phones are physically and Esim/app locked.
Now for you to understand what this means in conjunction with the MOU you linked SIGNAL is a managed APP and as I and others (along with the participants) have said, NO classified details were posted in the chat. SIGNAL is installed on the government provided phones due to it being written in the US by a corporation/OGA. Just because you and anyone can download SIGNAL doesn't mean that it's civilian use only, the US government had a hand in it's construction and DOES have backdoor access although most don't understand that abd that Signal came about "magically"[emoji57] after each of the other APPs that were used but persons of concern found through public news stories that 5 eyes had access...
The reporter claimed many things that were proven false in the congressional hearing that showed the group chat texts didn't contain what he said, i.e. TTPs, etc...
