| Can you come up with a legit reason why your spouse would have this on their phone? |
Yes |
| Didn't all of the feds start using this at the beginning of this administration to communicate? |
| Yes, one of my high school friend groups has a group chat on it. I'm not sure why. |
Plenty. Are they a Fed? Are they friends with a Fed? |
| Of course. All my discussions with friends in sensitive jobs are on Signal. |
| Some people want to keep track of US war plans in real time. |
I don’t know about feds but we’ve been using it for several years now. Signal predates Trump as a means of communication. |
|
OP here.
No, they are not a fed and they work in construction. There is zero reason professionally to have this level of privacy |
What are you insinuating, exactly? Remember, it could be someone they are communicating with who needs the privacy. Their affair partner, for example. (Is that where you were going with this?) |
Do they know people who do? Do they work with illegal immigrants? If I was one, I would have all my communications on Signal. It is much better than texting. ICE can’t just go grab all your texts, for one. |
Yes, I have it for a group chat. It's not nefarious at all. |
Whatever. If my wife was "chatting with her gfs" on a self destructing, end-to-end encrypted app known for the inability to be read by others...... yeah, I'd very comfortably assume they are talking about something they really, really, really don't want me to know about. |
This. He might be protecting staff. Ask him why. |
| We both have it for an activity our kid is in. |
