I'm not interested in the political angle of this story, but I nerd out on the cybersecurity.

The act of sending military strategy to a journalist who responsibly disclosed the leak is not that big a deal. It's a UX problem for Signal. I have made the same mistake. In fact, on that same day, I thougt I sent a private message in a group chat, but I sent it to my wife. It wasn't a big deal, She's in the group chat I meant to send the message to anyway, but it means Signal is not suitable for tin-foil hat level security.

I would never send two multi-signature bitcoin keys with Signal because of this UX, zero day exploits, etc.

I assume all Internet connected devices are pwned. This is basic stuff nostr:nprofile1qqsw3znfr6vdnxrujezjrhlkqqjlvpcqx79ys7gcph9mkjjsy7zsgygpzpmhxue69uh5ummnw3ezuamfdejsz9thwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmnymlvvup

I actually think they should encrypt everything with PGPnon an airgapped device before they send it on any communications channel. If they did that, they can post it on Instagram for all I care.

Well, maybe not Instagram because it's centralized. Nostr is way better. 😁
