The Guardian, reporting Trump’s own words. So I guess ultimately the idiot that created the title is the idiot currently in charge.
Massive fucking OpSec failure. All on the nupties that Trump has hired to run his admin. And of course, the buck stops anywhere but at Mango Mussolini’s desk.
Nah, the idiot is the one who spreads misinformation by using misleading titles. In what world did a “Signal security failure” occur? The title is extremely misleading and one can only hope it was incompetence; not intent.
What Trump calls things should be irrelevant to a news site.
There is zero chance that Trump will ever accept blame for anything. Ever. As far as Trump is concerned, it is a “Signal Security Failure” because Signal let them use the app in the first place. He’ll launch an investigation into Signal and probably sign an EO banning encryption on all government devices before he ever admits a failure on his part.
Sure, but I don’t really care what that idiot thinks. When I read an article about there being a “Signal security failure,” I expect there to be a Signal security failure.
It’s coming from Trump? Like idk what to say lol, I was already aware of the situation so it was very obvious to me.
Here’s an example, if I work at a bank and someone’s information is leaked to the public due to an issue with the security of the company, that would be a security issue on the software side.
If instead it was simply leaked manually by a person, that would STILL BE a security leak.
Have my upvote. Because my view is the same. The title included a quote, which is even marked as a quote. However, “Signal security failure” is without quotes. So the author just chose to unnecessarily blame Signal, instead of the real issue.
That phrase can also be parsed as a security failure involving signal, not because of it. Like a treaty created at camp david (eg) could be referred to in a headline as “camp david treaty” even if the official title is “Sweden Finland pact to stop throwing rotten fish over the border accord”.
I found the headline misleading because the phrase Signal security failure (with no quotes) could be incorrectly interpreted as Signal’s security failure instead of what it actually is, the Trump administration’s security failure. It’s not Signal’s fault that the Trump administration is incompetent, and the headline writer should have been more careful to make this clear.
Nope, it’s not. The part saying “the only glitch in two months” is indicated as a quote, but overall the title sounds like there’s a security issue in Signal and Trump chose to dismiss it because it’s the only glitch in the last two months.
Trump told NBC News that Goldberg’s presence in the chat had “no impact at all” on the military operation, and defended Waltz, claiming that the leak was “the only glitch in two months, and it turned out not to be a serious one”, as the White House sought to downplay the incident.
Y’all really need to learn to read the article before having a false opinion on it.
Alright, fair. I see your point now. Sorry to come out swinging like that. I think I misunderstood what you were trying to say originally.
The “security failure” was in government operatives using unsecured modes of communication. Signal itself did not have a security failure, the US government did.
The bit about it being a “”“glitch”“” is a direct quote though (and a bold faced lie by the president).
All good. It’s just an unnecessary punch against Signal. Especially journalist rely heavily on it, so I don’t know what the intention was with this title.
What’s up, buddy? Why the sudden silence? Or did you finally realize that “Signal security failure” was never something someone said and it was actually just something the author came up with?
What the shitgibbon calls things should be reported on, then promptly countered, so his bullshit can’t get embedded in the zeitgeist.
We also need more news sites. If you think you can do a better job reporting the news than the Guardian, than by all means, please do so, and do what you think is best. Because the only way we’ll get past this is by holding Master Mould Shitgibbon and his merry band of miscreants’ multiple fuckups to the light in as many ways as possible.
Sorry not sorry for not engaging in the shiny object you seem fixated on. I’ve got bigger fish to fry.
Which idiot created the title?
For anyone interested: there wasn’t any Signal security failure, someone sent stuff via Signal to people they shouldn’t have.

The security failure was using signal, it’s not that difficult to parse the difference lmfao.
So you’re gonna pretend that’s your first interpretation of the meaning of the sentence, huh?
Edit: Also, that’s wrong interpretation of what happened either way, guess the title doesn’t work even if you’re intentionally obtuse.

And are you going to call both a “bank security issue”?

That’s right. It is just unnecessary to mention Signal at all in this case, as it might cause confusion.
It’s clearly indicated as a quote.
The headline isn’t misleading. It isn’t leading at all, which is part of the problem actually.

There are no quotes. So it is not something Trump said. It was interpreted by the author of the news story.
Y’all really need to learn to read the article before having a false opinion on it.
And where exactly do you see “Signal security failure” in the quoted text?

There are absolutely quotes. No wonder media literacy is shit.
Single quotes are AP style in America for quotes within quotes and in headlines.
Single quotes are fully acceptable as quotes in other places. Like Englishland.
Tell me you are dense, without telling me you are dense. You can’t make this shit up 🤣
I’m not going to further teach grammar.
Look around, there should be plenty of Nazis around, though I doubt many of them remember high school English either.
What’s up, buddy? Why the sudden silence? Or did you finally realize that “Signal security failure” was never something someone said and it was actually just something the author came up with?
Sure sure. Oh. About the quotes. Do you mind sharing a screenshot of the quotes you are talking about?

Ah, so reporting stuff he said as if it was true, even though this is not a Signal security issue, but his incompetence is fine in your book?
So what, if Trump says random bullshit, every news piece about it should sound like they actually agree with what he said?
Okay, enjoy your articles about Signal security issues.
I don’t particularly care about your fish or your frying.
