While #Signal is perfectly fine for private conversations between non PEP (political exposed), or even private conversations between these, it is not OK when used for national security matters..

PEPs are typically high profile surveillance targets, blackmailing. Just loosing a phone can be disastrous if it is not remotely wiped immediately.

Hegseth shows disrespect for the lives of servicemen/women.

Hegseth Said to Have Shared Attack Details in Second Signal Chat

> [..] the information Mr. Hegseth shared on the Signal chat included the flight schedules for the F/A-18 Hornets targeting the Houthis in #Yemen — essentially the same attack plans that he shared on a separate Signal chat the same day that mistakenly included the editor of The Atlantic. nytimes.com/2025/04/20/us/poli #MAGA #signal
