And they offer no reasonable basis for distrusting Signal, the tech that they attempt to vilify. Given said dev’s past comments, it is reasonable to infer that the reference to China presents them as an example to be followed here.

This is posted relatively often, and every time it is posted I feel compelled to note that said dev has not articulated any real reason to consider Signal insecure beyond an implicit conspiracy theory with no real meat to it.
“Signal’s use luckily never caught on by the general public of China (or the Hong Kong Administrative region), whose government prefers autonomy, rather than letting US tech control its communication platforms, as most of the rest of the world naively allows.”
When you’re holding up China as an example for the world to follow for privacy, I have a hard time taking ANYTHING else you’re claiming seriously.
Less featureful, terrible violation of privacy, no way to easily delete just threads, gives a known bad actor a strong foothold…
What could go wrong?
To be clear, Texas’s position is consistent… if you understand that the point of Texas’s anti-abortion laws have nothing to do with the protection of women and EVERYTHING to do with controlling women’s bodies. Those in power would prefer women as subservient servants, so denying the protections they supposedly champion when it protects a woman is… pretty much where they want to come out on this.
TL;DR the people championing these laws wanted women controlled. They give zero fucks about fetuses.
