Great new feature in the latest Signal app. If you enable disappearing messages the meta data of calls and missed calls gets deleted as well.
I know this was a long standing goal for them, but the engineering behind it took time.

It’s really telling that the first two comments to my post about the meta data privacy improvements in Signal are punching down, complaining about Signal not doing it the way they would do it.

It should not have taken quite so much time.

@thedarktangent@defcon.social @signalapp@mastodon.world Its most glaring security failure is still intact, however. Do not use Signal if your life depends on it.

@thedarktangent@defcon.social @signalapp@mastodon.world the other step would be not to show how many devices are linked to your account to other people.
