We use signal in my family just because it seems secure from government oversight and eavesdropping. We have a few prepper types in my family. Lol
If a cheater is using that app they are doing so because they are trying to avoid detection or retrieval of texts

Listen to their words but believe their actions.
The power of a lie is that it is believed to be truth.

My boyfriend likes it because it's much more secure. He won't send anything that's private or personal except through Signal.

Yeah, you really can't access messages sent through Signal, that's why people like Edward Snowden use it.

If you don't trust your partner and they have this app installed, that's very bad.

They should not be using an app like this without your ok. Many people use it to cheat on their partners.

Well, that's not controlling at all :P

Agreed. If your partner has cheated, then full transparency is a must. This app won't allow that, so obviously no WS should have this app. It's not about control at all. Lol

What the hell kind of lives are people living that this kind of security is necessary?

My texts are so boring. “What do you need from the store?”

“Leaving work now.” “OMG look at this (some stupid thing I saw)”

I'm sorry, last time I checked this was a website about infidelity.

Y'know, getting cheated on?

The reason I know about these things is because i found my spouse cheating on me with multiple partners? I used technology to verify my findings after i was gaslit and manipulated, thereby gaining the knowledge and strength to leave an abusive relationship?

Anybody?

Thanks Hellfire.

Living a life where what we need from the store is nobody's damn business but ours. laugh

Seriously, if you're not paranoid, you're just not paying attention. Everything you do through the big tech companies is being captured and monetized. You are the product.

I understand the legitimate reasons for having it, but unfortunately it's incompatible with the kind of transparency that is needed after an A.

Point taken!

I'll concede this point too. I was thinking more in terms of individual people with nefarious intentions rather than corporations and "big brother".

99problems, I'm very sorry that I came off as flippant and making light of the reason we are all here. That is absolutely the last thing I would ever want to do. I understood the original post and absolutely agree that this technology has no place in a post infidelity M. I was more responding to the idea of people feeling the need for this level of security for everyday, ordinary texts and thinking of how boring my life must be. My sincere apologies.

If I was your mate and I did something untrustworthy and I was sincerely devoted to regaining trust with you, I would trash all my social media and I definitely would not maintain any covert communications ability. I would allow you to look at my phone whenever you wished and question and grieve any of my actions or Apps on my phone that make you uncomfortable without getting defensive.

But that's just me. My generation is capable of living without social media and would never put it before or let it jeopardize valued relationships.
