    Something at which even the original Signal fails. It has received criticism multiple times (1, 2) for not being verifiable whether it’s been tampered with by the app’s distributor, and also for having included properietary google services dependencies which dynamically load further code from the phone which is also a security issue. Worthy forks solve both of these.

    That’s unfortunate. I do hope that these forks don’t go and start making extensive changes though, because that’s where it becomes a problem.
