Comment on FTC says Amazon executives destroyed potential evidence by using apps like Signal

Either way, encryption and/or auto-delete isn’t the enemy here.

They used it for 15 months after being given notice to retain. It’s in the article.

Yep, totally agree. Just pointing out that the tech is not the enemy here, it’s the intent of the user(s). I’m a big fan of Signal, and they’ve done nothing wrong here, though to some the headline could imply that the tool is complicit here.
