@hsza@social.tudbut.de @Li@tech.lgbt signal is probably one of the most scrutinized security-related apps in the world, people would notice if it became a honeypot

@nyx@fedi.wasp.best @hsza@social.tudbut.de mhm there is being a honeypot (i.e relaying information to the feds / someone else, security theatre) but then there is also "seeming like" a honeypot, which is, like doing things and making decisions that make no sense, taking hard stances that actively make your supposed purpose worse, to the point that the obvious immediate conclusion is that they're trying to do something malicious and the latter is honestly what i meant by this. i don't have any proof of the former, lol
